Ploye

Ploye is a traditional Acadian flatbread that is often misguidedly labeled as a pancake, which it is not, since it is not flipped. Inexpensive and easy to make, ploye consists of buckwheat flour, wheat flour, water, and baking powder. It is traditionally cooked on one side only, then buttered, drizzled with maple syrup, molasses, or brown sugar.

These flatbreads are consumed rolled, and are often paired with baked beans or fricot, a popular chicken stew.
