Wholesome Blueberry Sheet Pan Pancakes For Baby + Toddler
These Wholesome Blueberry Sheet Pan Pancakes are so delicious your baby or toddler will want to eat them all-the-time! These can be made gluten-free, dairy-free and egg-free!
Blueberry Sheet Pan Pancakes
Sheet pan pancakes are made for parents who love to make homemade pancakes but don’t love all the time standing around the stove. 🙋♀️
There are so many other things to do early on a weekend morning besides standing in the kitchen.
You could be sitting on your porch having a cup of coffee ☕️
You could be snuggling with your little one while having a cup of coffee ☕️
You could be playing a board game with your kiddo while sipping your morning coffee ☕️
As you can see, coffee is pretty much the only thing on my agenda until noon 😍☕️😃
It’s good that these fluffy, whole-grain pancakes can be prepped in under 5 minutes before popping them into the oven, where they finish baking.
You can top them with blueberries or any fruit your family prefers – sliced strawberries, raspberries, chunks of peaches or sliced bananas.
Serve with a side of maple syrup to dip them in, a slice of bacon, some scrambled eggs and of course another cup of coffee for an epic weekend breakfast!

Any chance I could sub in pumpkin puree instead of applesauce? I have some on hand from another recipe!
Hi Emily! I think that work nicely but I haven’t tried it. Let me know how it turns out for you – I might have to try it myself. =) xoxo
I have a feeling that we have different whole wheat flour in Europe cause it looks different than on pictures here and makes this recipe almost a disaster. Made it and hate it 🙁
Day after it was rock hard, not suitable for baby
Hi Anna! Yes, upon researching it, whole wheat is different here in the US.
Love your recipes! Have been using them since our now 15 month old was 6 months old! How long does this store on the counter?
Thanks for being here 😊! I would recommend storing it in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Is it okay to use cow milk if baby is less than 1? Can’t wait to try these!
Yes, you can offer cow’s milk in baked goods to babies under 1 – you can read more about it here. Enjoy!
Just made these! I substituted the applesauce with the same amount of yoghurt and it worked really well. The texture of these were the perfect amount of moist although I would say the end result is more of a muffin texture rather than pancake. They tasted good however not as sweet as they appear, I’m used to baking lots of sweet things though. They are perfect for toddlers and my little one enthusiastically gobbled it down so this recipe is definitely a winner and one I’ll be returning to. If I were to make it against though, I’d probably stir in additional blueberries into the mixture as I felt like this could add some more sweetness and some pieces only had one or two blueberries in them.
I’ve made this 3 times now! They’re a huge hit with my 14 month old, (and me!!!!!💁🏼♀️). I’m celiac, and I make this recipe gluten free by grinding 2 cups of sprouted oats in my ninja blender (one cup at a time). To help with the structure and texture, I add 1/4 cup tapioca starch. I also use a full cup of frozen blueberries because we love them! (I rinse them in cold water first to take off any excess ice, then blot them off with paper towel). So easy and they always turn out! I cut into squares and freeze in layers between parchment paper so that they’re easy to pull out and reheat for breakfast!
So happy to hear that you love this recipe! Your gluten-free flour substitution is amazing! I’m also gluten-free and will have to try this method out.
Hi, love your recipes and looking forward to making this one. I have 2 questions: am I seeing 1 TABLESPOON of baking powder correctly? just making sure since I’ve made mistakes before ha! Also, when I’ve made baked pancake recipes in the past it sometimes stays a bit raw around the fruit on the top layer. Any tips for avoiding this? Can I mix the fruit into the batter or do I need to place in at the end? Thanks!!
I also want to know if 1 tbsp is correct! I want to make these but that seems like a lot!
How long do these hold in the freezer?
They would last 2-3 months in the freezer.
Are whole blueberries safe for babies over 9 months? I’ve been doing a mix of baby-led weaning and purees.
Baby can definitely have blueberries. I would cut them in half, quarters or smoosh them so they are not a choking hazard.
I don’t have applesauce. Have everything else. Will this work without the applesauce? My child is 14 months old so doesn’t really need much of sweetening anyway.
I haven’t tried it, but you could sub in any puree or yogurt to give it mositure.
Could oat flour be used?
I haven’t tried oat flour in this recipe. I usually have good results using oat flour in place of whole wheat flour. You may have to add in more liquids. Let us know if you try it and how it works.
I made these with a 1:1 sub of Oat flour for my 15 mo. They didn’t feel like pancakes to me but they were still yummy and he hobbled then up.
*gobbled them
Love this!
Hello,
Can I use frozen fruit instead? Would I need to thaw first? Thank you
I haven’t tried using frozen fruit in this recipe, but I wouldn’t see any reason why it wouldn’t work. I would try just adding in the frozen blueberries straight to the batter and then baking.
I just did – rinsed frozen blueberries and added as the recipe said. Turned out perfect. My son loved these!
I cut the recipe in half since it was my first time making them. I also put them in heart shaped cupcake molds 🤣. They came out pretty awesome. Now to just get my toddler to eat jt 🤦🏽♀️
How long do they last in the fridge
5-6 days
