Prep Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons (113g) butter, melted (plus more for greasing the pan)
  • 2 cups (16 oz) milk of choice
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp (39g) maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon (5g) vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (140g) whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup (145g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp (12g) baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup (140g) fresh or frozen blueberries*
  • Toppings: ~ butter, maple syrup, powdered sugar, or whipped yogurt.
  • *You could sub blueberries with any berry or chocolate chips. Have fun and make half of it blueberry and the other half chocolate chip! Other ideas: walnuts, strawberries, drizzle of peanut butter.
  • Note: ~ cut it into squares using a pizza slicer and then just use a knife to loosen the edges.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Grease a rimmed baking sheet on the bottom and sides with butter or spray.
  • In a large microwavable bowl, add the butter and microwave in 15 second increments until just melted. Whisk in the milk, eggs, maple, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and use a rubber spatula to mix until no dry flour remains. It may be a bit lumpy, but that’s normal!
  • Pour into your prepared sheet pan and use your rubber spatula to carefully spread it into an even layer, then give the pan a shake to even it out.
  • Top with the blueberries (or whatever add-ins you want). Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the top is very light golden, then turn your broiler on high and place it on the top rack to broil for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown in spots (keep an eye on it, you may want to rotate halfway through to get more even browning).
  • Let it cool off for about 5-10 minutes, then slice it up and serve topped with your desired toppings.

Items you can prep ahead (optional)

  • Mix together the dry ingredients (flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt).

Substitutions:

  • To make gluten-free, substitute the flours with 2 cups of all-purpose 1:1 gluten-free flour mix.
  • To make dairy-free, substitute the butter with 6 tablespoons of melted coconut oil.
  • To make vegan, see above + try this using 2 flax eggs.

Storage:

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Leftovers + Repurposing:

  • Reheat leftover pancakes in the toaster or toaster oven. It gets them nice and crispy!
  • These taste really yummy on their own so they make a really delicious snack.
