Sheet Pan Pancakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ever since I posted my American Style Oat Pancakes back in 2009, they have been a regular feature for breakfast among many of you. Light, fluffy and delicious. My family actually enjoy these over regular pancakes now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However sometimes in the morning, especially if you are tired, the last thing you want is to have to stand at the stove and flip pancakes and that's where these Sheet Pan pancakes are perfect. Just mix up the batter, add in the fruit, bake, slice and it's done and they really are delicious. You can even blend the oats the night before, so everything is all ready to just mix in the morning and bake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blending the Oats<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To blend the oats for the batter, you can use any kind of blender, nothing fancy is needed. So whether you have a counter top blender or just one of those handy stick blenders, both will work fine to grind up the oats for the pancakes mix. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I use Ready Brek?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ready Brek might seem like a quicker option if you don't have a blender or want to try and save more time. But I don't recommend it personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? I have tried it before for my American Style Pancakes and my family just don't like the final result or taste with Ready Brek and there are a few reasons for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's easy to assume ready brek is the same as blended oats, but it actually isn't. Ready Brek is a processed oat cereal made from oats, oat flour and fortified vitamins. If you have ever eaten a bowl of ready brek and a bowl of oats and compared, I can assure they they do not taste the same. Also because of how processed ready brek is, it actually weighs less than oats, so if you weigh out 40g of oats and 40g of ready brek, the Ready brek has more volume and will therefore mess up the ratio of other ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So with that in mind, use it if you must, but just be aware that for best results I recommend using rolled oats as per the recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fruit for Sheet Pancakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For these Sheet Pan Pancakes I used a mixture of banana and frozen berries which was just the perfect combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However you really can add various different fruit, so long as you don't add a high ratio of fruit to the point where too much liquid is released and affects the batter it should be fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
