A fun and colorful sheet pan pancake recipe that is quick, easy, and perfect for busy mornings. Fluffy, golden, and baked in one pan, these pancakes are a crowd-pleaser with a festive confetti twist.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 ¼ cups whole milk (or preferred dairy/non-dairy milk)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • ½ cup rainbow sprinkles (funfetti sprinkles, avoid those that melt too much)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a 9×13-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients: milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Some lumps are okay; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in ¼ cup of the rainbow sprinkles to distribute evenly.
  6. Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly to about 1-inch thickness.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of sprinkles evenly over the top.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the pancake puffs up, edges turn golden brown, and it springs back when pressed.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes to set.
  10. Slice into squares or rectangles and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh berries.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Use fresh baking powder for best results. Choose sprinkles that hold their shape and color after baking. Tent with foil if edges brown too quickly. Batter can be prepared the night before; add sprinkles just before baking.
