Pancakes differ from the usual fritters in that they are cooked in fresh milk and a dry frying pan, without oil. Unlike Russian pancakes, they also contain baking powder. They're not greasy and dry, a cross between pancakes and muffins. Pancakes are a staple in every American family, traditionally served with maple syrup. But they're also delicious with jam, condensed milk, or sour cream.

Pancakes are healthier than traditional pancakes. Sure, they're not exactly a diet dessert, but you don't have to count every pancake you eat. 🙂
