Why We Love This Pancake Recipe

Pancakes are easy enough to make, right? Why do you have to put them in the oven?? Well obviously, you don’t. However, pouring pancake batter into a sheet pan and popping it in the oven takes out a lot of the busy time of flipping pancakes over a hot stovetop.

While Sheet Pan Pancakes cook effortlessly in the oven, you have time to casually scramble eggs or cook sausage patties. There’s no need to stress over and juggle all your breakfast dishes on the stovetop at once. Also, all the pancakes are ready at the same time!

PLUS, less mess, less chance of burning the pancakes, and just as much breakfast fun! Enjoy making this easy recipe with your choice of tasty toppings – in fact, everyone in the house can choose what goodies to include in their section of baked pancake.

Ingredients You Need

  • All-purpose flour – can be gluten-free flour
  • Granulated sugar – or your preferred granulated sweetener, like coconut sugar
  • Baking powder – for perfectly fluffy baked pancakes
  • Salt – just a pinch
  • Buttermilk – store-bought or homemade buttermilk, or whole milk
  • Eggs – room temperature is best for baking
  • Vanilla extract – a must-have ingredient for baked sweets
  • Butter – unsalted butter

Plus your favorite add-ins and toppings! In the photos shown here, we have one pancake with blueberries – you can use fresh or frozen. The other has sliced bananas, chocolate chips, and sliced almonds.

Pro Tip: In a hurry? You can use this method with pancake mix. Simply use 3 cups of mix with the appropriately measured add-ins.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you make this recipe with pancake mix?

Use 3 cups of boxed mix with the appropriately measured add-ins, like milk and eggs. This will cut several minutes of prep time!

What makes pancakes fluffy and rise?

The right combination of eggs and baking powder is what makes the fluffiest baked pancakes. Also, be sure to not over-mix the batter.

How do you make gluten-free pancakes?

Swap all-purpose flour with whatever GF baking mix you like. Similarly, use a gluten-free boxed pancake mix.

Can you make this a dairy-free recipe?

Yes! Swap traditional dairy ingredients with your fave plant-based butter and milk subs. Soy, almond, and oat milk are all great alternatives!

How many days are leftover pancakes good?

Store cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To freeze, wrap in plastic wrap and store in an airtight zipper bag for up to 3 months.

Reheat sheet pan pancakes in short bursts in the microwave at 50% power. To keep them from drying out, I suggest you wrap each piece in a layer of slightly damp paper towel when microwaving.
