Family breakfast made easy with XXL oven-baked pancake

All sorts of pancakes, fritters, and similar delights are breakfast favourites for the little ones. Although the batter itself is usually made quickly, standing by the frying pan and cooking small pancakes can be rather time-consuming. However, this recipe focuses on an extra-large (XXL) size. One sheet pan will feed the whole family, with leftovers for an afternoon snack.

It's as fluffy as cake, and you can add a variety of ingredients on top. It's easy to cut a piece and pack it for school or work. It's also great when you want to prepare something delicious and quick for an afternoon treat, as it makes an excellent cake substitute. In this form, pancakes become sweet perfection.

Instead of frying individual pancakes, you prepare one large rectangular pancake that fills the entire sheet pan. This way, you don't need to stand by the pan and cook in batches. Simply prepare the batter, pour it into the pan, and place it in the oven.

Preparing the batter is very simple, and baking takes a little time. You can even bake it the day before.

Ingredients:

                          
• 190 grams of plain flour,
• 1 egg,
• 240 millilitres of buttermilk,
• 60 millilitres of vegetable oil,
• 50 grams of sugar,
• 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder,
• 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda.

Additions: 

              
• chocolate stars,
• raspberries,
• blueberries,
• strawberries.

Preparation method:

Step 1. Pour the flour into a bowl. Add the sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, oil, egg, and buttermilk, and mix everything into a uniform mass.

Step 2. Line the sheet pan with baking parchment and pour in the prepared mixture. Place the additions on top - fruits and chocolate pieces. You can mix them together and spread them over the entire pancake or arrange them separately, creating different flavours in different sections. Put it in the oven preheated to 180°C and bake for approximately 30 minutes.

Step 3. After baking, divide the finished pancake into pieces and enjoy it for breakfast, or take it to work or school. Enjoy!
