3. Place your pancakes in your vessel of choice.  My favorite is a muffin pan or individual ramekins.
4. Top with whatever you want!  Get crazy!
5. Bake your pancakes for 15 – 20 minutes depending on your oven.  Start checking at the 15 minute mark.  Your pancakes are baked when a toothpick comes out clean, or your the internal temperature of your pancakes is 210 F.

Thats it!  Baking pancakes couldn’t be easier, and it is a great way to try something new for breakfast or a snack.

One of the best parts of baking pancakes is that if you can add different things to portions of your pancakes, especially if you are using a muffin pan or ramekins.

If you are using a sheet pan or low shallow dutch oven, you can add different things to each section.

Here are my favorite things to add to baked pancakes:

• Shredded coconut (unsweetened of course)
• Chocolate chips
• Blueberries
• A sprinkle of cinnamon and brown sugar

You can add anything you want to them, like other berries or other things you would put on pancakes, cakes, or oatmeal.

So yes, you can bake pancakes and the possibilities are endless!
