Baked foods?

Question

What are baked foods?

are pancakes included?

Answer 1

No Pancakes are not baked.

Baked is anything you put in the oven!

Answer 2

The literal answer would be any food that is baked in the oven as opposed to roasting in the oven is a baked food.
These foods could be anything from baked potatoes to baked cookies--with baked chicken, salmon, pies,etc. somewhere in the middle.

But, as a general rule--as a cook--I think of baked foods as being things such as pastries, cakes, cookies, brownies and other baked desserts.

However, then there are things that confuse the issue such as quiches, brie baked in puff pastrie, phyllo wrapped foods such as spanikopeta and meat pies.

There are pancakes that are only cooked on the stove top and one must cook both sides--but then there are filled pancakes such as Dutch Apple Pancakes that are started in a skillet on the stove top and then finished by baking in the oven.

But, crepes and pancakes are usually dry cooked in a frying pan or on a griddle. Not baked.
