This is what we Romanians call “pancakes” (clătite). In the US for example, these are not “pancakes”. What Americans call “pancakes”, we call “clătite americane” (American pancakes) or just “pancakes” (the untranslated English word).
~The pancakes in the photos were made by me~
Pannenkoeken in the Netherlands and they look remarkably similar
I think it’s similar in German - pfannkochen or something like that
Yes, Pfannkuchen (which means exactly pancake). But only in west Germany. East call them Eierkuchen. (Eggcake)
I didn’t know about Eierkuchen. In the Netherlands eierkoeken (same word, but Dutch) are something else: https://www.recipesfromeurope.com/eierkoeken/.
A bit thicker though. Otherwise it is called a flensje.
