A simple and quick recipe for fluffy sheet pan pancakes that are perfect for feeding a crowd without the hassle of flipping individual pancakes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups (320 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 ½ cups (600 ml) milk (whole milk preferred, 2% or plant-based like oat milk are fine substitutes)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons (60 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Position the oven rack in the center to ensure even baking.
  2. Prepare your sheet pan: Line the rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon if using.
  4. Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat eggs with milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mix. Gently fold with a spatula until just combined; a few lumps are okay.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared sheet pan and spread evenly to about ½ inch (1.3 cm) thickness.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes until edges are golden brown and the center springs back when touched lightly.
  8. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick or cake tester into the center; if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes to set.
  10. Slice into squares or rectangles and serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes tender and fluffy. Use room temperature eggs and milk for better texture. Let the batter rest briefly before baking. Line the baking sheet to prevent sticking. To keep pancakes warm, place the sheet pan in a low oven (about 200°F / 90°C) tented with foil.
