National Pancake Day: Deals and Coupon Codes from IHOP, Pancake Pantry and more - Newsweek

Today is National Pancake Day, an awareness day for all things batter, bacon and maple syrup. To help you get the most out of this scrumptious day, Newsweek has trekked through the internet to find you the best pancake deals for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Pancakes are considered to have been around since the dawn of time. According to National Geographic, researchers believe that Stone Age cooks used grinding tools to make flour out of cattails and ferns, mixing the powder with water and baking the mixture on a hot rock. This produced something very similar to modern-day French pancakes, or crepes.

Since then, throughout the ages, the pancake has been a staple food in many a diet. The Greeks and Romans ate pancakes sweetened with honey, the Elizabethans ate them with spices, rosewater, sherry and apples, and the American colonies ate pancakes made with buckwheat or cornmeal.
