Make breakfast simple for the whole family with these easy sheet pan pancakes. You skip the messy flipping and cook a large batch all at once. Use your favorite scratch recipe or a store-bought mix for maximum convenience.
4 tablespoons melted butter, plus extra for greasing
Optional Mix-ins: 1 cup blueberries, chocolate chips, or cooked crumbled sausage and shredded cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
Grease a standard 13×18 inch sheet pan generously with butter or cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar if making from scratch. If using a mix, skip this step.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and melted butter until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Whisk until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine. If using a mix, follow the package instructions for liquid amounts, then mix.
Carefully pour the batter onto the prepared sheet pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
If you want mix-ins, gently sprinkle blueberries, chocolate chips, or savory items over the top of the batter now.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should look set and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares or serving directly from the pan.
Notes
For a softer, fluffier result, use whole milk and melted, slightly cooled butter.
If you are using savory items like sausage, make sure they are fully cooked and crumbled before adding them to the batter.
Serving the pancakes directly from the pan keeps them warm longer for large groups.
This recipe is great for meal prepping; leftovers reheat well in a toaster oven.
