A quick and easy sheet pan pancake recipe with a brownie twist, combining fluffy texture and rich chocolate flavor for a fuss-free brunch that feeds a crowd.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup (25g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 3/4 cups (420ml) buttermilk (or milk + 1 tbsp vinegar)
  • 1/4 cup (56g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp espresso powder (optional)
  • 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch sheet pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Add buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and espresso powder; mix well.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Batter will be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips evenly through the batter.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared sheet pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes. Check at 18 minutes with a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Use buttermilk or a milk and vinegar substitute for best texture. Adding espresso powder enhances chocolate flavor without bitterness. If edges brown too quickly, tent with foil. For gluten-free, use a 1-to-1 gluten-free flour blend. Dairy-free substitutions include plant-based milk and coconut oil.
