Lazy Pancakes Recipe – Easy Oven-Baked & No Flip

No-flip lazy pancakes: oven-baked, fluffy, and ridiculously easy—your new go-to for effortless pancake perfection

Prepare the Dry Ingredients

In a medium mixing bowl, add all-purpose flour, baking powder, and sugar. Whisk the dry ingredients together thoroughly to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed. This step is important for achieving a light and evenly risen texture in your final bake. Set the bowl aside.

In a separate bowl, crack egg and whisk until slightly frothy. Add vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The mixture should appear slightly creamy and uniform, with no visible streaks of egg.

Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Using a whisk or spatula, gently fold everything together until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the final product dense instead of soft and fluffy. The batter should be smooth with a slightly thick, pourable consistency. A few small lumps are perfectly fine.

Bake to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking pan or line it with parchment paper. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan.

Bake for 18–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once baked, allow it to cool slightly before serving.

Enjoy soft, moist, and lightly sweet baked goodness perfect for teatime or as a base for frosting.
