Soft, light, fluffy and delicious pancakes quickly baked on a tray, in a fraction of the time and effort as regular pancakes. No flipping skills required! What’s not to like about that? I’m all about saving time in the kitchen and squeezing in extra family cuddles with the time saved flipping pancakes. I mean how can you beat that?

I wish I could claim this is an original recipe idea by me. It is not. My 9 year old is big fan of cooking shows and this quick and easy pancake is a recipe adapted from one of her favorite celebrity chef and author Nadiya Hussain. She is a huge fan and memorized many of Nadiya’s cook show dialogs.

This traybake pancake recipe is versatile. It’s easy enough to make ahead the batter night before and bake on a weekday morning, yet so elegant that you can serve during weekend brunch. You can also double to recipe for a crowd. The first time I made the Peanut Butter & Jelly tray bake was on father’s day and it was a huge hit. Did I say I made it for Eid breakfast too and everyone devoured it?

American fruit preserve or jelly can be too sweet so I’ve reduced the amount a bit from Nadiya’s original recipe. I’ve also reduced sugar from the original recipe and this family absolutely loves the easy baked pancake for breakfast.

I’d highly recommend you play with other toppings such as nutella, tahini, walnut, sliced banana or strawberries, blueberries, chocolate chips, etc. We can’t have enough of this unique, quick and easy pancake. I hope you give it a try and let us know how you like it.
