Easy, vegan sheet pan pancake with bananas & berries! Made with 5 ingredients, they are also gluten-free and so easy to make.
Friday is here, and not just any Friday: it’s the Friday before (1) a 3-day weekend (hurrah!) and (2) the Houston Marathon this Sunday! Further, I am expecting out-of-two guests (arriving today), so, all things summed, today’s recipe is much needed.
The recipe in question is my super-simple, 5-ingredient, sheet pan pancakes, studded with berries and bananas. It’s exactly what you want for a chilly, January weekend (easy, delicious, minimal effort, satisfying but still healthy), plus it can either serve a crowd (hello, guests!) or get packed up for multiple days of quick and easy breakfasts on the go.
A Healthy Vegan Sheet Pan Pancake
All that you need to get started is your favorite gluten-free pancake mix (or regular pancake mix, if GF is not needed).
I am astounded by how many GF options are available at my local supermarket; so much has changed regarding availability (and price) of GF items in the past few years. I found 3 GF pancake mixes shelved alongside regular pancake mixes, plus 2 additional options in the “healthy foods” section. I used Bob’s Red Mill, simply because I have used it on previous occasions (and like it) and it is readily available. But again, use what suits your needs and preferences!
Beyond the mix, the only necessary ingredients are 2 bananas, some flaxseed meal, and the nondairy milk (or dairy, if you prefer) of your choice.
How to Make It
Assembly is ridiculously easy, which is why I love sheet pan cooking in general: blend everything in a blender or food processor, pour into a large rimmed sheet pan, and bake! Once done, cut the pancake into squares and serve as you would any pancakes, including with any and all of your favorite toppings (pass the maple syrup, please!).
I find it difficult to leave well enough alone, so I opted to add an additional banana, sliced, plus some berries before baking. As you can imagine, add-in options here are vast (other fresh fruits, dried fruit, nuts, spices, etc.), so have fun making the pancake your own.
Enjoy the Pancake Warm or Cold
As delicious as the pancakes are warm from the oven, the cooled pancakes are a dream, too. Store them in the refrigerator for a week’s worth of breakfasts (warmed and plated, or wrapped in a napkin to go!). They are great, not-too-sweet snacks, too, for any time of the day.
Enjoy the weekend, everyone, and be sure to add this recipe to your to-do (and, to-eat!) list!
