Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 large egg
3 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for greasing
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup mix-ins (blueberries, chocolate chips, or cinnamon swirl mixture)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 13×9 inch baking pan generously with butter or cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine for fluffy pancakes.
Gently fold in your chosen mix-ins, such as fresh fruit or chocolate chips.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Spread it gently with a spatula if needed.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should look golden brown.
Remove the pan from the oven. Slice the sheet pan pancakes directly in the pan into squares.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup or whipped cream.
Notes
For a cinnamon swirl effect, mix 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Drizzle half the mixture over the batter before baking, swirl lightly with a knife, and drizzle the rest halfway through baking.
If you want to use pancake mix, follow the package directions for the amount of liquid needed for a thick batter, then pour into the pan and bake as directed.
This recipe is excellent for meal prep. Cool completely, cover tightly, and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in the toaster or microwave.
