Easy Oven Baked Pancakes
Sheet pan pancakes are for those days when you don’t have time to stand around flipping batches of pancakes or brioche French toast. All the batter gets cooked at once similar to a sheet pan dinner, making it even easier to get the light and fluffy pancakes we all love with a fraction of the effort!
Pancakes on a sheet pan use the same ingredients your everyday pancakes do. The measurements are a little different because you’re essentially making one giant pancake. Slice into as big or as little pieces as you’d like then serve with a maple syrup or buttermilk syrup!
Can I Make these into Buttermilk Pancakes?
You can! To turn my favorite buttermilk pancakes into a sheet pan recipe, swap the milk used in this recipe for buttermilk. If you don’t have any on hand, here’s a quick buttermilk substitute.
Yummy Add-ins
Once you’ve poured the batter into the sheet pan, think about what you want to bake into it! You could evenly distribute them or give each topping its own section that way everyone can have what they like. We especially love making chocolate chip pancakes!
- Sliced bananas
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Chocolate chips
- Sprinkles (a funfetti pancake for a birthday breakfast!)
Topping Ideas
Keep it healthy, keep it simple, or indulge a little!
- Almond butter
- Sliced fruit or fresh berries
- A pat of butter
- Salted caramel sauce
- Cinnamon pancake syrup
- Powdered sugar
- Apple pie filling
- Whipped cream
- Sprinkles
- Hot fudge
- Strawberry sauce
Tips
- This recipe will make 8 large slices, 12 regular slices or 16 small slices.
- Lining your sheet pan with parchment paper as well as greasing it will help with easy lifting of the pancakes to get nice clean slices.
- Use a butter knife or pizza cutter for slicing.
- Do not overmix the batter. You want it to remain light and fluffy.
- Add a little brown butter to your pancakes for an exceptional depth of flavor and yummy nuttiness.
- Throw in a dash of pumpkin pie spice when the weather gets cooler for some delicious sheet pan pumpkin pancakes!
Storing & Reheating
Store pancakes in an airtight container or Ziploc bag in the fridge for up to 4 days or transfer to the freezer for up to 2 months.
To reheat, you can either thaw in the fridge overnight if you are planning ahead, or reheat from frozen. Pop them in the toaster for a crispier pancake or in the microwave for 20-second intervals for a softer texture.
More breakfast recipes we love include make-ahead sausage and egg breakfast casserole, overnight French toast casserole, baked oatmeal and breakfast pie.

My family enjoyed these! They were very fluffy and although a bit crumbly my husband said nice and moist. They bake up like cross almost between a coffee cake and pancake. Half the pan topped with chocolate chips and other half blueberries.
My kids loved this for breakfast and I even made them a toppings bar! Such an easy and delicious recipe! Definitely making this again!
I was hesitant to try because I love the traditional round shape but I am glad I did. So much easier and faster with the same great taste!
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing sheet pan pancakes recipe! Really helpful and easy to make! Loved it!
