I have been on a bit of a breakfast kick lately. If you saw my last post for mini dutch baby pancakes, you may have noticed how I love to use eggs, milk and fresh milled flour to feed my family.

Can You Use Any Pan to Make Pancakes?
In a world where there is a different size pan for just about every baking recipe, you may be wondering what size of pan for sheet pan pancakes? For this sheet pan pancakes recipe, I recommend using an 18 x 13 inch sheet pan. However, if you do not have a large pan, you can use a smaller one. The pancakes just will be a bit thicker and may take an additional minute or so to cook through.

Healthy Sheet Pan Pancakes

Serves: 6-10
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups freshly milled soft white wheat flour
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups milk
4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping Ideas – fresh fruit such as blueberries, strawberries or raspberries, chocolate chips, nuts, white chocolate chips, peanut butter, jam, etc.
Directions
Preheat oven to 425° F. In a bowl combine the eggs, milk and vanilla. Slowing mix in melted butter. Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk until just combined.
Heavily grease a 18” x 13” sheet pan to prevent the pancakes from sticking – I like to use lots of melted butter. Pour pancake batter onto baking sheet. Sprinkle chosen toppings over top of the pancake or leave plain. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Cut into squares and serve as is or with additional butter and maple syrup. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge or frozen.
Note: if you don’t have an 18 x 13 pan, you can use a smaller sheet pan. The pancakes will just be thicker and may need a bit more time to bake.
Can You Freeze Sheet Pan Pancakes?
Yes! Cut the oven baked pancakes into squares and place inside a freezer safe zipper bag. Be sure to add a piece of wax paper between each pancake to prevent them from sticking together. Label and date the bag then store in the freezer. Pancakes will stay fresh for about a month or so.
How to Reheat Sheet Pan Pancakes?
The quickest way to reheat pancakes is in the microwave. Place one sheet pan pancake with fresh milled flour on a microwave-safe plate and microwave for about 20 seconds, depending on the wattage of your microwave.
If you are warming up more than a couple pancakes at a time, I suggest the oven. Heat the oven to 350° F. Place the pancakes on a baking sheet, then cover with foil to prevent them from drying out. Bake for about 10 minutes or so until the pancakes are warm again.
I do not recommend using a toaster to reheat sheet pancakes. The pancake is simply not sturdy enough to stand up in the toaster. Plus if you added toppings to your pancake, for example chocolate chips, they could melt into your toaster creating a big mess.
