Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups pancake mix
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet (approximately 18x13 inches) with parchment paper or lightly grease the pan with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are okay.
- Pour the pancake batter evenly into the prepared baking sheet, using a spatula to spread it out to the edges, ensuring an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
- Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. The pancakes are done when the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. The pancakes will continue to set slightly during this time.
- Cut the sheet pan pancakes into squares or rectangles using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
- Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top. Optional: Add fresh berries, whipped cream, or additional butter as desired.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the toaster or microwave before serving.
Tips
- Prep Your Pan: For the best results, make sure to line your baking sheet with parchment paper or use a non-stick cooking spray. This will prevent the pancakes from sticking and make cleanup a breeze!
- Don’t Overmix: When combining your ingredients, mix just until everything is blended. A few small lumps are perfectly fine and will help keep your pancakes fluffy.
- Check for Doneness: Keep an eye on your pancakes as they bake. The edges should be golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean. This ensures your pancakes are cooked through but still soft.
- Customize Your Toppings: While maple syrup is a classic, feel free to get creative! Add fresh berries, a dollop of whipped cream, or even some chocolate chips to the batter before baking for an extra special treat.
- Store Leftovers Wisely: If you have any leftovers (which is unlikely!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be reheated in the toaster or microwave, making for a quick breakfast option later in the week.
