This is the low-effort pancake recipe you'll make on repeat.

These are perfect for mornings when you're craving pancakes but absolutely cannot face standing at the stove flipping them one by one.

Everything gets mixed in a single bowl, poured onto one tray, and slid into the oven — where breakfast basically cooks itself. Meanwhile, you're free to deal with the rest of the household chaos: packing lunches, finding missing shoes, answering "what's for breakfast?" for the fifth time, and mentally negotiating with yourself about another coffee.

It's low effort, low mess, and high reward — exactly how mornings should be.
