Home Cricet Player 🕰️ What about A Little Pancake History Pancakes have been around for thousands of years — one of the oldest prepared foods known to humanity! Prehistoric times: Even cavemen made early pancakes! Scientists found pancake-like remains with Ötzi the Iceman (from 3300 BCE). Ancient Greece & Rome: They ate pancakes sweetened with honey and flavored with spices. Very bougie for the time. Medieval Europe: Pancakes were big on Shrove Tuesday — folks made them to use up rich ingredients before Lent. Early America: Colonists made pancakes with cornmeal or buckwheat. Later, baking powder brought that fluffy pancake glow-up. Today, pancakes are a worldwide fave — from French crêpes to Japanese soufflé stacks. They’ve been flipping through history with style 😄 Go to Pancake
