Pancakes - also known as hot cakes - or crepes - a thinner version of pancake - are always a popular item and well suited for breakfast, lunch, brunch or dinner.

Today, we enjoy and create many versions of this old traditional cake. Here are a few recipes that may change your mind of the many, out-of-the-box possibilities of the crepe and hot cake.
Be Creative when cooking these delights.
