edit: I love how Europeans still struggle to believe that these are what America sees as pancakes. For context, these buttermilk pancakes were so big that I only ordered two and could only eat half of the second one. If you went to our “International House of Pancakes(IHOP)” and ordered pancakes, this is what you’d get. America really is on another level.


At home they’re about 1/2" thick, and 4-6" in diameter, that’s what you get most non-chain places too.
Can confirm the archetypal American pancake is much more like half an inch. OPs pancakes would def be considered thick.
They definitely were on the thicker side, but this was compared to European expectations of 1 cm being crazy. They came out looking bigger in the pic, so they were closer to 3/4 of an inch than 2 cm
These are Paul Bunyan approved type pancakes, your heritage has been stolen from you
