Sheet Pan Pancakes Recipe
Sheet pan pancakes are a game-changer when it comes to whipping up a delicious breakfast in a flash. No more having to wait around and cook pancakes one by one! By using a single sheet pan, you can avoid the hassle of flipping individual pancakes on a griddle, which not only saves you time but also minimizes the mess in the kitchen. Just mix up the batter, pour it into the pan, and let the oven do the work. It’s the BEST way to feed a crowd.
Just like traditional pancakes, you can customize these to your liking! Try adding in your favorite ingredients like chocolate chips, blueberries, or even a swirl of cinnamon and sugar. The result is a batch of pancakes that are wonderfully fluffy on the inside and golden-brown around the edges. They’re a breeze to prepare, easy to slice into squares, and everyone will love them. It’s such a fun twist on a classic breakfast! Whether it’s a lazy weekend brunch or a busy weekday morning, sheet pan pancakes are a convenient way to satisfy your pancake cravings without the fuss. Here’s what you need to make them!
Ingredients Needed
One of the best things about this recipe for sheet pan pancakes is that it uses such simple ingredients. Grab things like flour, sugar, eggs, and milk, and get ready to watch them transform into a sheet of fluffy, golden goodness!
- All-Purpose Flour: Gives the pancakes structure.
- Baking Powder: The leavening agent that makes the pancakes rise and become fluffy when baked in the oven.
- Salt: A trusty flavor booster!
- Granulated Sugar: So the sheet pan pancakes have a little sweetness to them.
- Milk: The fat content in milk helps make the pancakes nice and tender.
- Large Eggs: Eggs provide structure, moisture, and help bind the ingredients together in the batter.
- Vanilla Extract: Gives the pancakes a warm and comforting flavor.
- Vegetable Oil or Butter: Vegetable oil or melted butter adds moisture to the mix. I like using butter because of the extra pop of rich flavor it adds.
- Add-Ins and Toppings of choice: These can be ingredients like chocolate chips, berries, nuts, or any other favorite toppings you prefer!

Tips and Variations
Sheet pan pancakes are so tasty and a fun twist on a classic breakfast! Here are a few ways to make them your own.
- Get Creative with Toppings: Experiment with your favorite toppings like sliced bananas, powdered sugar, peanut butter, fresh berries, chopped nuts, or even a drizzle of maple syrup or caramel sauce. Don’t be afraid to mix and match for a unique flavor combo.
- Add Zest: Boost the flavor by adding a teaspoon of citrus zest (lemon or orange) to the batter. It adds a refreshing twist to your pancakes.
- Spice It Up: If you like a hint of warmth, try adding a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients for a cozy, spiced pancake experience. It’s perfect for fall!
- Fun Shapes: Instead of cutting into squares, use cookie cutters to create fun, bite-sized pancake shapes for the kids (or the kids at heart).
- Make Them Savory: Pancakes don’t always have to be sweet. Try adding grated cheese, chopped herbs, peppers, or cooked bacon bits for a savory twist.
Storing Leftovers and Freezing
Store any leftover sheet pan pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. To reheat them, pop them in the toaster for a minute or warm over the stove!
Can Sheet Pan Pancakes Be Frozen?
Yes! These pancakes freeze well. Once they’ve cooled, cut them into squares, place them in a zip-top bag with parchment paper between layers, and freeze. Pop them in the toaster for a quick breakfast anytime!
