Well, I’d consider Dutch culture to be western as well lol. Dutch pancakes are there own thing (not to be confused with a ‘Dutch Pancake’ in America, which is another different thing
We call the thicker, smaller pancakes ‘american’ pancakes.
Dutch pancakes (Pannenkoeken) are thinner and bigger in diameter. More like a crêpe. Though crêpes are thinner again.
The american ‘Dutch Pancake’ is a very fluffy egg pancake baked in a pan. (Also called a German Pancake or Dutch Baby Pancake) (there’s not much Dutch about it, because it originated in the US from someone of German descent)
All of them are super easy recipes! Though if you’re in America I would advise against making the German Pancake at the moment, because you need a lot of eggs for that one.
A UK pancake is very much that same large like a crepe but more substantial as well. Enjoyed almost exclusively on pancake day with sugar and lemon (we did blood orange juice because fancy).

I’m Canadian so that’s not our problem :)

Came back from NL recently, and their pancakes seem the same as ours (UK). My mother quite enjoyed them as they were familiar.
