Sheet Pan Buttermilk Pancakes Recipe

November 2017

Pancakes certainly are a brunch favorite, but driving them to for a crowd isn't any easy feat. Even with a substantial skillet or griddle, it's nearly impossible to serve everyone a warm short stack at a time. Our solution, These easy sheet pan pancakes—essentially a huge, fluffy, buttery pancake that you cut into squares and serve warm to family. To achieve the signature golden brown color, we brushed the pancake with melted butter after baking and popped it in the broiler with the finishing touch. Keep it classic with all the basic recipe, or try our variations below. No matter your add-ins, be sure to provide with butter and maple syrup.

2¼ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon kosher salt
