Reply to comment by paysbas in [I ate] Dutch pancake by That-Try3995

I knew that via Google but the menu said that it's a Dutch pancake or Dutch baby (or at least that's what they call this dish) so I just went with it! No disrespect to the Dutch culture!

Americans seem to call a lot of things Dutch that are not recognized by Dutch. Same for Dutch apple pie I saw here. What's next?

Most of that stems with a derivation of 'Deutch' and 'Deitsch' when german immigrants who settled in pennsylvania, they became known as "pennsylvania dutch": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsylvania_Dutch

It was more of a simplification due to dialect that became a regional colloquialism.

None taken. But I’ve never seen it :) And I’m Dutch. Looks more Austrian
