This is the BEST Vegan Sheet Pan Pancake recipe you're going to find. Just whip up the 8 ingredient batter made using pantry staples you likely already have on hand, spread onto a baking sheet, decorate with toppings as desired, and bake for 15 minutes. Boom! Breakfast on the table.
Evenly cooked, SUPER FLUFFY, hot all at the same time, and with endless flavour combos. Perfect pancakes every time! Easy Vegan Sheet Pan Pancakes are a game-changer at breakfast time or any time of the day, really!
I LOVE pancakes. Mini cakes for breakfast: what's not to love? But honestly, I'm not the best pancake maker. My pancakes always come in various shapes and sizes. I'm not always good at flipping them. The first batches of pancakes are cold by the time I finish the last batch and there's always a burnt pancake or two. So when I discovered the beauty of sheet pan pancakes, I fell in love.
Not only are these pancakes so much quicker and easier to make, but it's so fun how you can play around with the toppings. It's fun for kids (or kids at heart like myself) to decorate their own section with their favourite toppers.
I decorated my easy vegan sheet pan pancakes in four different sections, chocolate chips, raspberries, bananas & walnuts, and sprinkles (for Birthday cake vibes). But you could top your sheet pan pancakes with any toppings you like! Some other fun ideas would be coconut shreds, blueberries, strawberry slices, slivered almonds, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of natural peanut butter. The options are endless, and super fun!
How to make Easy Vegan Sheet Pan Pancakes:
Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to a large bowl and whisk well.
Now add the plant-based milk, lemon juice, melted vegan better, and vanilla extract and gently combine. The batter will be lumpy and full of big bubbles. This is good, don't over mix it! (Big bubbles make for the fluffiest pancakes).
Pour the batter on the prepared baking sheet and gently spread evenly over the baking sheet with a spatula. I used an 11" x 17" baking sheet, but a 10" x 15" sheet would also work well.
Decorate the top of the pancake with any toppings as desired. Bake for 15 minutes until the edges of the pancake are lightly browned. The top of the pancake will be pale, but will be cooked, you can test it by lightly poking it. Slice and serve with maple syrup or other pancake toppings.
Easy vegan sheet pan pancakes are wonderful served all on their own, but they would also be great paired with a side of my banana peel bacon, and a simple tofu scramble for a really hearty breakfast.
Common Questions:
Can you freeze sheet pan pancakes?
Yes you can! Best method would be to let them cool then chop up what's left into individual slices. From there, store in a sealable freezer bag or air-tight container and be sure to separate the pieces with parchment paper to avoid them freezing together. To reheat, just pop them in the toaster!
Bon appetegan!

Omg this recipe is genius! The whole family loved it! It was so much easier than making individual pancakes and everyone got to try the toppings of their choice! The pancakes were fluffy and baked perfect in 15 mins. I will definitely be making this again!

Hi,
This recipe looks FABULOUS!!!! I have a few questions…..
What could I use to replace the lemon juice? Would white vinegar work? How long do the bars stay good for and how do I store them? Could I stack the recipe in layers and put maple syrup and vanilla frosting in between each layer so it’s more like a layer cake? Can this recipe be made into 8 or 9 inch round cake pans? How long should I bake it for?
Thank you!!!

I added a mashed banana and only used 1 tablespoon of sugar, used 1 cup whole wheat flour (the rest all purpose), used apple cider vinegar instead of lemon juice, and coconut oil instead of vegan butter and these turned out amazing! Very fluffy and tasty! I am printing the recipe to use again.

Wonderful! So happy it's a new go-to for you Caitlin 🙂

I saw your note about not having tried alternate flour, but I'm wondering if any of your followers might have tried gluten free flour. Thanks so much

I've made this recipe(altered in quantity-i do a 2/3 recipe in a 9x 13) quite a few times since i discovered it couple months ago because my kids love pancakes, and like you mentioned in your blog, theres always a burnt pancake or two and its hard to keep em all warm...and its also hard to keep 3 little ones and a hungry guy waiting! all i keep in my fridge for the most part is whole milk, thats what i use instead of plant based. Everything else was as stated in the recipe.It works out perfect everytime and the kids absolutely love it! my middle child eats it with nothing on it! I also share it with my 90 year old neighbor and she loves them too! Thanks Sam, you are the best!!
