Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips

To ensure your Gluten Free Sheet Pan Pancake turns out perfectly every time, keep these helpful tips in mind:

• Make Ahead: You can prepare the dry ingredients the night before. Simply mix them in a bowl and store in an airtight container. In the morning, just add the wet ingredients and bake!

• Storage Suggestions: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast!
