Top Tips for Sheet Pan Pumpkin Pancakes
To get the pancake batter light and fluffy, be careful not to over-mix the ingredients! Otherwise, it will make the pancakes chewy.
Preheat your oven before you start making the pancake batter, so it’s ready to go when the batter is in the pan. Avoid the batter to sit in the pan for too long or the pancakes won’t bake properly.
Don’t forget to line the baking sheet with parchment paper. It lets you easily cut the pancakes into square pieces and remove from the pan without sticking. Also it is much better for an easy clean-up.
Use 2 whole eggs. I tried using liquid egg whites but they weren’t as fluffy.
In the video as I mixed the dry ingredients I forgot to add the nutmeg, clove and cinnamon. Therefore, you will notice that I added them when I added the liquid. I advised to follow the directions as I have stated them above and if you make a mistake like I did it is totally fine.
A Healthy Pumpkin Breakfast
Ingredients of Sheet Pan Pumpkin Pancakes
All purpose flour: You can use wheat flour or a gluten-free flour.
Baking powder: It makes the pancakes so fluffy and light.
Light brown sugar: Granulated sugar sweetens perfectly the baked pancakes, but you can also use maple syrup, honey, or agave syrup.
Cinnamon: It gives a distinctive aroma and woody flavor to pancakes.
Nutmeg: This spice adds comforting and nutty flavor to pumpkin pancakes!
Cloves: This intensely aromatic spice gives a slight bitterness which tastes so good when combined with pumpkin.
Vanilla extract: It gives the exotic richness and aromatic flavor to pancakes.
Pumpkin purée: To give the sheet pan pumpkin pancakes their authentic pumpkin deliciousness, you will need a bit of real pumpkin puree.
Eggs: You will need two large whole eggs to stabilize and build volume to your baking delicacy.
Milk: This recipe requires non-dairy milk, but it is totally fine if you choose to use whole regular milk. But the texture and taste may vary a bit depending on what type of milk you choose.

Steps to Prep
Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9×13 sheet pan with baking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl combine the flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, brown sugar and baking powder.
Then add the eggs, milk, vanilla extract and pumpkin puree. Mix well using whisk until well combined.
Pour the batter into the sheet pan and spread evenly. Then top the pancake batter with your favorite toppings such as fruit or chocolate chips. I prefer it plain then top after it is cooked.
Optional: mix additional 2 tablespoons of light brown sugar and 1/2 tablespoon of all purpose flour then garnish all the pancake batter.
Bake at 350 degrees for 18-20 minutes, until it springs back to touch.
Enjoy! Remove the sheet pan pancakes from the oven, cool slightly, and then cut into squares and serve warm topped with maple syrup or honey.
Traditional Pumpkin Pancakes:
Grease a griddle or skillet with butter and heat on medium heat.
Follow steps 2 and 3 above to make the pumpkin pancake batter.
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, ladle, or ice cream scoop, pour the batter into a hot, greased griddle or skillet.
Cook for about 2 minutes or until the edges bubble and the bubbles open. Then carefully turn the pancakes with a spatula and cook for about a minute more on the other side. Repeat for each pancake.
