From the word’s history
From Middle English pancake; pan + cake.
源自中古英文，由 pan「平底鍋」加 cake「餅」組成。
A round of batter poured into a flat pan and cooked until it is a thin, flat, even disc. The two things that carry the whole word are its shape (flat and smooth, spread evenly over a surface) and the fact that it is a layer laid down on something.
