What are Sheet Pan Pancakes?

- Add healthy mix-ins like chia seeds, a dose of vanilla protein powder, or some flax meal without changing the texture.
Ingredients
BATTER: Pancake batter is like our favorite fluffy pancakes in sheet pan form. This recipe uses all purose flour, eggs, baking powder, soda, milk, vanilla, a smidge of salt, and a handful of blueberries. The milk and lemon juice can be substituted with buttermilk if you have it on hand.
Ensure the eggs and milk are room temperature so the melted butter mixes in well.
Add-Ins & Toppings
- Add chopped walnuts, chocolate chips, toffee pieces, dried fruit, bacon bits, or swirl in some fruit preserves. The possibilities are endless!
- Top with warm maple syrup or Caramel Sauce, a few spoonfuls of preserves, whipped cream, chocolate or Homemade Blueberry Sauce. Some sliced berries or bananas are also a great option!
How to Make Sheet Pan Pancakes
No need to fry pancakes on the griddle or get the kitchen all smoky, just follow a few easy steps to pancake perfection:
- Whisk dry ingredients and wet ingredients (except the butter) in separate bowls. Fold the dry into the wet and then stir in the butter.
- Scrape batter onto a prepared baking sheet and bake (as per the recipe below) until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and cut into desired sized pieces and serve.
Perfect Pancakes Every Time!
- Don’t overmix the batter, it should be moist but a little bit lumpy.
- For the fluffiest pancakes ever, let the batter rest for about 3 minutes before spreading into the baking sheet. This allows the baking powder and baking soda to activate a little more, creating air bubbles.
- If using fresh or frozen fruit, toss it in a small bag of flour until they are coated. This helps keep the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the pan.
- Use extra-large, room temperature eggs that will create maximum rising and fluffiness during the baking process.
- It is important to use the correct size of baking pan so the batter doesn’t overflow or isn’t too thin.
- The pancake is done when a toothpick comes out clean.
