Reply to comment by Pademelon1 in [I ate] Dutch pancake by That-Try3995

>A Dutch baby pancake, sometimes called a German pancake

This is the only acceptable form of a GERMAN PANCAKE

Iirc, it's a Pennsylvania Dutch thing. The Pennsylvania Dutch of course not being Dutch, but rather Deutsch, but also so far removed from the culture of Deutschland as to be entirely distinct.

That’s because they were invented by german immigrants to the US. They’re not actually from Germany either.

I just learned what I grew up knowing as German pancakes is actually is a traditional food in Kedah, Malaysia,thanks to your post. My mom grew up getting served it by her mom who called it German pancakes(she is from Germany which makes this more confusing) so now I'm wondering who and how one of my ancient relatives learned to make Pek Nga
