Why We Love Kodiak Cake Sheet Pan Pancakes

• Ready in 15 minutes – All moms and busy families with busy mornings want this, right? Plus, the kodiak cakes mix is pre-made for you. Just add your liquid of choice, eggs and fruit and it’s possible for weekday mornings.
• Great for picky eaters– This is a great option for picky eaters because they can add their own toppings. One of my favorite breakfast ideas for toddlers!
• Family friendly– Anything with sprinkles is bound to be a favorite among kids! Traditional pancakes are classic, but if you want something fun and different, you’ll love these easy sheet pan pancakes! We make them when we have cousins/guests over or just want a one pan breakfast sheet pan for the whole family. It’s like one giant pancake that you can divy up into smaller portions.
• High in protein – While it is generally easy to get carbohydrate foods into kids, getting protein in can be harder at times. These sheet pan protein pancakes do the work for you and have protein baked in, plus more from the eggs and milk you’re using.
• Great for lunches and dinners – Not only are these sheet pan kodiak cakes great for a meal prep breakfast, but they are also an easy re-heat lunch or dinner option and perfect for a weekend brunch. In fact, since they are packed with protein, they can be a great protein idea for kids lunches!

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make sheet pancakes. Just four simple ingredients!

• Kodiak Cakes Birthday Cake mix – You can use any Kodiak Cakes mix or homemade pancake mix. I prefer Kodiak cakes because the proportions are already done for you and they are made with whole grains! You can use the plain Kodiak Cake mix if you’d prefer.
• milk of choice – I prefer dairy milk or soy milk for more protein. However, unsweetened almond milk is great for a light but neutral flavor.
• eggs
• bananas, or any other fruit you’d like to add

Here are some of my favorite optional add-in’s but you should add your favorite pancake toppings!

• fresh fruit
• frozen fruit
• chocolate chips

• greek yogurt
• dried fruit
• vanilla extract or almond extract
• hemp seeds
• flax seeds
• pomegranate seeds
