Pancake or hotcake is a popular breakfast food all over the world. But here in the Philippines, it is also a popular food for snack or merienda. We also have our very own twist to it– the Pinoy-Style Hotcake.
You’ll notice that the color is more yellow than usual (see ingredients to find out how). And the main source of flavor would be margarine and sugar instead of the usual butter and syrup. If you miss this food or you haven’t tried it, make one today! Just follow the easy recipe here:
