Hotcake and flapjack are just different terms for pancakes in North America but a flapjack isn't pancakes in the UK and Australia, it is a type of biscuit made from oats. Im from the UK and I've never heard of the term hotcake.

Hey, you excluded crepes... they are basically the same thing too, just a little thiner and flatter... you simply make the batter very thin!
I think they all taste much the same, made the same, etc....
If it looks like a pancake, smells like a hotcake, tastes like a flapjack, then I don't know what to call it!!!
A pancake by anyother name is not the same??
Just a different way to confuse those with feeble minds!

They are the same thing. It's just a regional thing...like 'flapjacks' is used more by people from the Eastern part of the US. 'Hotcakes', southern, and 'pancakes', Midwestern.

I think hotcakes are smaller than pancakes. And flapjacks aren't as fluffy as pancakes or hotcakes... or maybe we're all just crazy!

a flapjack is thinner than a pancake from what I understand. Don't know the difference between a hot cake.

No pan cakes are cooked in a pan, Flapjakes are thrown into the air, & hotcakes are what McDonalds serve for breakfast.

I never really thought about it. I think they are basically the same thing but with different names.

they're the exact same thing. it just depends on where you live. like people in new hampsire call sprinkles "jimmy's". a sprinle is a sprinke, and a pancake is a pancake.

They are the same thing. The name differs from what region of the country you are in.
