Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups milk
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings (Optional)
- Melted chocolate
- Berries
- Sliced banana
- Or topping of your choice
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare the pan: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 9×13-inch sheet pan with butter or cooking spray, or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to combine and evenly distribute the leavening agents.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
- Combine the mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; it’s okay if there are a few lumps. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
- Pour and add toppings: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared sheet pan, spreading it to the edges. Sprinkle any desired toppings like chocolate chips, blueberries, or sliced bananas over the batter.
- Bake: Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes. The top should turn golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean. For crispier edges, bake an additional 1–2 minutes.
- Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Use a knife or pizza cutter to slice into squares or rectangles. Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy and tender.
- Feel free to customize with your favorite toppings before baking.
- Using parchment paper makes cleanup easier and prevents sticking.
- Letting the pancakes cool slightly before cutting helps them hold their shape better.
- Sheet pan size can be slightly adjusted but keep the thickness of batter consistent for even cooking.
