Easy and quick sheet pan pancakes bursting with fresh lemon zest and juicy blueberries, perfect for a fuss-free weekend brunch with a tender, fluffy texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ cup (50 g) sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 ¼ cups (300 ml) milk (whole milk preferred, 2% or almond milk works too)
  • ¼ cup (60 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup (150 g) fresh blueberries, washed and patted dry
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 9×13-inch sheet pan with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with milk, melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract if using.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently whisk just until combined; batter should be slightly lumpy.
  5. Fold in the blueberries gently with a spatula to avoid bursting them.
  6. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared sheet pan and smooth the surface with an offset spatula or back of a spoon.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes, checking at 15 minutes with a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the pancakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.

Notes

Use fresh lemon zest for best flavor. Fold blueberries gently to avoid bleeding. Tent with foil if edges brown too quickly. Batter can be prepared the night before and baked fresh in the morning. For gluten-free, substitute flour with a 1-to-1 gluten-free blend. For dairy-free, use plant-based milk and coconut oil instead of butter.
