Pancakes vs Waffles ~ It's a Duel
Ranked #1,497 in Food & Cooking, #27,588 overall
WHAT'S YOUR OPINION ON THE TWO OF THE WORLD'S MOST FAVORITE BREAKFAST FOODS - PANCAKES & WAFFLES
I love Pancakes and Waffles but if I have to decide what to make...I make PANCAKES. I use a Traditional American/Canadian Pancake recipe that can be used for either pancakes or waffles.
I order a Belgian Waffle occasionally in a restaurant for a treat but usually I would order pancakes. I'm not sure what it is about waffles but for me I think it's just a taste preference. It would be great if I could make a darn good delicious waffle but...I just love Pancakes!
Pancakes don't seem to get as soggy as waffles or maybe it's just me. I also prefer pancakes for their light fluffy texture and enjoy them with either jam or syrup. Of course, I use a bit of margarine but some people prefer to use butter.
Do you have a preference for pancakes or waffles? What's your opinion? If you can't decide between pancakes or waffles, how about saying something you like about either one.

IT'S YOUR TURN! IT'S A DUEL BETWEEN PANCAKES VS WAFFLES! IS IT JUST A TASTE PREFERENCE OR IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?
WARNING: THIS DEBATE COULD GET TASTY!
...so which is it? Which is better in your opinion? Pancakes or Waffles?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byPancakes are so Tasty. Pancakes are Better...

I love both! I always have a tough time deciding, but I would say I get pancakes more often.

Well, let me add some delicious confusion:-) I'm from Europe (Croatia) and we don't eat pancakes like in US, but crepes like in France. We love them because they're thin and you can fold them. Can be combined with any kind of fillings, even salty ones if you want a main dish (cheese, mushrooms...). Of course, kids love them just with chocolate or jam:-) Waffles are considered here more as biscuits. Great duel!

A hard choice, but I think pancakes are more versatile in terms of the fillings they will hold. And I think they go better with savoury stuff.

No way, Waffles are Delicious. Waffles are Better...

I'll have to go with waffles here.. they have a delicious unique taste. Pancakes are good, too, but maybe I have pancakes more often and waffles seems more like a treat.. ? Great lens - very thought provoking! LOL

Waffles catch the topping in their cute little holes, making them easier to eat. Plus they're crunchier!

Waffles. Texture, flavor, ability to keep syrup from sliding off... waffles win.

Perfectly cooked waffles for the win! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.

I SAY: PANCAKES are Better because...
...Pancakes are Easier to Make than Waffles
I really enjoy cooking breakfast and making tasty pancakes. You may call them griddle cakes or hot cakes depending on how you cook them. I cook pancakes in the frying pan or if I'm making a large batch of pancakes, I use my griddle.
Our family loves waffles but I have a hard time keeping them crisp. Besides, waffles are too much darn work and I have to make too much batter. Truth be told, I am just lazy. My daughter bought me a new waffle iron and I'm still learning how to use it.
I probably could make delicious waffles if I practiced a little more but who wants to practice on their family. I prefer tasty fluffy pancakes anyways. Please...just don't tell my family! It's our secret.
