how to make sweetheart brown sugar sheet pan pancakes
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Grease a rimmed baking sheet (about 18×13 inches) with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar until well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until everything is well blended.
Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Pour the Batter into the Pan: Pour the pancake batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Add Toppings/Heart Shape: Using a knife, carve out a heart-shape into the middle of the batter. Place the slices of strawberry on top and scatter blueberries all around.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until pancakes are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Serve: Let the pancakes cool for a few minutes before slicing them into squares. Serve warm with maple syrup, butter, and/or any additional toppings you like.
