I have noticed that a lot of Americans say that but to me a crepe is much drier and has a more wheatie taste well the ones I have tasted in France and Greece were.

A British pancake is very fatty hot and oozing in sugar and lemon juice :o)

Yeah, but they’re much thinner than the American version. And you can roll them, like a crepe.

I found it amusing on my first trip to the UK (NI) that the hotel chef didn’t have a recipe for American-style pancakes. He needed to learn, because there were going to be MANY of us passing through for many years to come.

So, a couple of us spent several days in the kitchen with our new friend and gave him a few helpful hints to appease home-sick Americans ‘round the breakfast table..

My mom’s recipe for crepes (aka palachinke) is similar to the British pancake. After they’re made, she heats them up with lots of butter and cream cheese...or sometimes maple syrup. YUM!
