These easy sheet pan pancakes make for a fast breakfast that everyone can enjoy! Make these sheet pan pancakes from scratch or from a mix and they'll turn out great every time!
My 4 year old is obsessed with pancakes, but making them one at a time over the stove is too energy draining for me. That's why I love this sheet pan pancake recipe.
I can whip up enough for the whole family in minutes while I focus on side dishes instead. If I'm just making pancakes for him, then I usually opt for Pancakes in a Mug.
Not only that, but I can really get creative with the add-ins so that the pancakes feel special and fun. The kids think they're being treated, but really it's me. I get to spend less time on my feet and more time where it counts.
Why This Recipe Works
- It's fast. Just mix the batter as you normally would and pour it into a baking sheet. I'd say this recipe is quicker than making pancakes one at a time in a skillet!
- You can DIY or use storebought. Have a pancake mix already on hand? Feel free to use it. Or you can make your own pancake batter from scratch. The details for both are included below.
- It's customizable. Add whatever toppings you want to your pancakes for a unique and flavorfully fun experience every time.

🧾 Substitutions
Pancake mix. You can use Bisquick, Krusteaz, Storebrand, or a homemade pancake mix if desired. I like to make buttermilk sheet pan pancakes using a buttermilk flavored pancake mix.
Milk. If you're making this sheet pan pancake mix from scratch, using buttermilk instead of milk can help to give a more restaurant-quality flavor. You could also use buttermilk in the pancake mix version if desired. Other milk like nondairy, whole milk, no fat, etc, will work just the same.

Here are some great ideas for things you can do to make your pancake feel even more fun and special.
- Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- Blueberries

💭 FAQs
These pancakes would be good with any of your favorite breakfast side dishes like bacon, sausage, eggs, or fresh fruit.
You can store your leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. For best results eat within 3 as pancakes seem to dry out as they age in the cold air of a fridge.
Reheat your pancakes on a baking sheet in the oven at 350 degrees F for about 5 minutes or warm them one or two slices at a time for a minute in the microwave.

Notes
- The add-ins (some, like sliced bananas or strawberries) take another minute or two to bake because they're high in moisture.
- Not all baking sheets are the same size. If you use a smaller pan or a 9x13 baking dish your batter will be thicker and require a few extra minutes compared to someone who used a larger baking sheet and had a much thinner pancake.
