Slice the breakfast cakes into squares, then top them with maple syrup, fresh fruit, honey, fudge, caramel sauce, jam, or whipped cream—or a combination of several toppings. If you love a mix of savory and sweet flavors, try topping the oven baked pancakes with crumbed bacon or breakfast sausage. Cook Mode (Keep screen awake) Ingredients 2 cup packaged pancake mix 1 ½ cup milk 1 egg 2 tablespoon cooking oil ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon ½ cup fresh blueberries, 1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate pieces, or 2 tablespoons cooked bacon pieces Maple syrup Margarine or butter (optional) Directions Kelsey Hansen Combine Batter Ingredients Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pancake mix, milk, egg, cooking oil, and ground cinnamon. Stir in the blueberries, chocolate pieces, or bacon, if using. Test Kitchen Tip: Don't stress about lumps in your pancake batter. To keep your finished pancakes light and fluffy, you'll want to avoid overmixing. The lumps will dissolve during the baking process. Kelsey Hansen Pour Batter Into Pan Pour the batter into a greased 15-1/2x10-1/2x1-inch baking pan. Bake the pancakes for about 10 minutes or until golden brown and dry in the center. Kelsey Hansen Cut and Serve Remove the sheet pan from the oven and cut the pancakes into squares. Serve with maple syrup, margarine or butter, and other toppings of your choice. Makes 6 to 8 squares. Test Kitchen Tip: We like to top this oven pancake recipe with pure maple syrup. Pure maple syrup is maple sap that's been boiled down to reduce water and concentrate the flavors. It has no added sugar, thickeners, artificial colors, or flavors. Maple-flavor syrup (aka pancake syrup or table syrup) is mostly corn and/or high-fructose syrup with added maple flavoring. How to Store Leftover Oven Baked Pancakes If you have leftover oven baked pancakes, store them in the fridge for 3 to 5 days or freeze them for up to two months. Label your container to track how long they've been frozen, and learn how to reheat your pancakes for the best flavor and texture. Frequently Asked Questions What is pancake mix made of? Most store-bought pancake mixes contain a blend of flour, baking soda, sugar, and salt. The packaged mix contains all the dry ingredients needed to make pancakes at home. What is a good substitute for pancake mix? You can easily make homemade pancake mix using all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar. Including dry milk powder also adds flavor and texture. Make a batch and store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 6 months.
