Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons aluminum-free baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt

- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings
- Chocolate chips
- Blueberries
- Strawberries
- Bananas
Other
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 425°F. Generously grease a 13×18 inch baking sheet with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and slowly incorporate the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract by whisking until the batter is smooth with some lumps remaining.
- Pour Batter onto Pan: Pour the pancake batter evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out to fill the pan.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle chocolate chips over one quadrant, blueberries over another, strawberries on the third, and bananas on the last quadrant of the batter.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Cut the baked pancakes into 12 portions and serve immediately, optionally with maple syrup for extra sweetness.
Notes
- You can use any fruit or mix-ins you prefer for the pancake toppings.
- Ensure eggs are at room temperature for best batter consistency.
- Do not overmix the batter; some lumps are okay to keep pancakes tender.
- Check the pancakes starting at 15 minutes to avoid overbaking.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute whole milk and butter with plant-based alternatives.
