kodiak cakes protein sheet pan pancakes

When you need a super simple (dare I say stupid simple) breakfast that requires no babysitting and is filled with protein, these Kodiak Cakes protein sheet pan pancakes are it! They are always a hit with our toddler, and they are so easy that he can practically whip them up. They are topped with cinnamon sugar and a Greek yogurt maple syrup frosting that adds more protein and just a touch of sweetness.

Ingredients

2 cup protein pancake mix regular pancake mix works well too and results in around 20g of protein! see notes!
6 eggs
1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt blended cottage cheese or silken tofu
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoon cinnamon sugar 2 tablespoon sugar + ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Frosting

1 c plain non-fat Greek yogurt
½ cup whipped cream cheese if not whipped, let it come to room tempurature first and whip with a hand mixer
½ teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Grease a quarter sheet pan or 9x11 pan well. Line with parchment paper if you're concerned it might stick.
Make the cinnamon sugar as needed by mixing 2 tablespoon sugar with ½ teaspoon of cinnamon.
In a bowl combine 2 cup protein pancake mix, 6 eggs, 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon until just mixed. Some lumps in the batter is fine!
Spread into the prepared sheet tray. Then sprinkle evenly with 2 tablespoon cinnamon sugar. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until just golden brown. Be careful not to over bake so it doesn't become dry and rubbery.
In another bowl, mix the ½ cup whipped cream cheese, 1 c plain non-fat Greek yogurt, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and 2 tablespoon pure maple syrup into a frosting (in my video, I did more of a glaze, but I actually prefer a frosting, which is why you see the recipe written this way). See ingredient list for notes on using a block of cream cheese.
If you want a glaze for a frosting, add a bit of milk to thin it out or maple syrup if you prefer it sweeter.
Slice the pancake into 6 even slices and serve with about ¼ cup of glaze each. Top with more maple syrup as desired.

Notes

Greek yogurt: Higher fat is fine; it just has less protein.

Comparing pancake mixes: We make this regularly with Kodiak Cakes pancake mix, but apparently, some think it results in dry pancakes. We have never found that, but we also always top ours with extra Greek yogurt (or this frosting) and maple syrup. If you are afraid it will be too dry with the protein pancake mix, you can most definitely use regular pancake mix. The protein content is still much higher than comparable recipes (around 20-25g).
