Apple Cinnamon + Oat Sheet Pan Pancakes
As a mom of 4, of all the things I’ve served for breakfast over these last 18+ years – sheet pan pancakes have become my most favorite and first response to making homemade breakfast. This Apple Cinnamon and Oatmeal Sheet Pan Pancake version is (believe it or not) my favorite of my favorite. And that’s a lofty statement!

Rather than topping with diced apples (as instructed in the recipe), I took the opportunity to add a little seasonal flair by cutting the apples into hearts.
Sheet Pan Pancakes for the WIN
You can read all about WHY sheet pan pancakes are SO awesome HERE. So, without repeating all my thoughts, let me just tell you why Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Sheet Pan Pancakes are the best of the best IMO.
With every bite, the whisper of warm cinnamon and baked apples mingles with the texture and earthiness of rolled oats. It’s comforting and satisfying and (thanks to the butter and pure maple sirup) a little gluttonous all at the same time.

Every kid will be pleased. I guarantee.
