Your pancakes will be even fluffier, too.

It’s Sunday morning and your guests are craving breakfast. Pancakes are the obvious answer, but you don’t want to spoon out out messy batter and flip flapjacks all morning long. You’ll miss all the laughs and conversation. Fortunately, the Pioneer Woman has a simple, delicious answer: sheet pan pancakes.

These may not sound ideal at first. The browned, crisp exterior of pancakes is what makes them so delicious — wouldn’t a sheet pan completely change the texture? The short answer is yes, but it might be a welcome change.

Sheet pans allow the pancake batter to rise more, creating a fluffy interior. Unlike traditional pancakes, a slice of sheet pan cake will absorb more maple syrup. And, if you still crave a little crispiness, just pop the pan under the broiler for the last minute or two.

Better yet, you can change up the ingredients based on sections. Pour chocolate chips onto the left side, sprinkle blueberries or strawberries in the middle, and layer banana slices on the right. Voila! Three different sets of pancakes in record time.
