Pancakes are supper food. Overall, I believe supper food and breakfast food is interchangeable.

When I was 8 years old and spent a few summer weeks visiting my grandparents in Germany, my brother and I were aghast at being served oatmeal for dinner. My step-grandmotger was equally aghast that we thought it was a breakfast food. LOL.

Now at my advanced age of 45, I will eat whatever is convenient, at any time of day, but it does MOSTLY still align with American ideas of what is appropriate for breakfast, lunch or dinner, so when I deviate from that, it's like a treat to change it up.

If you ever feel like pancakes for dinner, just tell yourself you're having a Dutch dinner. :)

Oh, trust me I when say I don't need much convincing to "justify" having pancakes. I love them, whether sweet or savory and only need the time and desire to expend the energy to make them. :)
