Weekend breakfast is one of my favorite parts of Saturday and Sunday mornings. My husband loves pancakes, but I don’t love hovering over the stove watching him eat his share while I wait for my pancakes to cook. And so, this Kodiak Cakes pancake recipe was born!
Oven pancakes are one of my go-to foods for family breakfasts and weekly meal prep. They are versatile and easy to prepare. This Kodiak Cakes pancake recipe ensures you can enjoy breakfast with the rest of the family rather than flipping those cakes one by one. Quite literally, this is a pan-cake recipe! 🙂
This is oven-baked pancake recipe is packed with 12 grams of protein per serving. Compare that to a standard pre-packaged pancake mix which typically ranges between 3-5 grams per serving.
The final product can be enjoyed hot or cold, straight from the oven or refrigerator. Serve plain or with sugar-free maple syrup and a side of fresh fruit.
Kodiak Cakes Pancake Mix
For this recipe, I used the buttermilk Kodiak Cake Power Cakes Flapjack & Waffle mix^. I prefer the Kodiak Cakes Power Cakes mix for this recipe because it isn’t as sweet compared to some of the other flavors, and the protein content is a smidge higher.
My Kodiak Cakes Blueberry Muffin recipe is another one of my favorites that uses the Power Cakes pancake mix. Only 165 calories and 7 grams of protein per muffin.
Kodiak Cakes Nutrition Facts
Kodiak Cakes is hands-down my favorite brand for high protein pancake and baking mixes. I love that the first ingredient is 100% whole grains, and the Kodiak Cakes instructions are clearly marked on the box. I haven’t made a recipe I haven’t liked!
Kodiak Cakes Gluten-Free Mix
Kodiak Cakes makes several high protein pancake and waffle mixes including a gluten-free flapjack and waffle mix^. By swapping the gluten-free Kodiak Cakes mix, this recipe would indeed make the perfect high protein, gluten-free pancake recipe. No flipping required!
Compared to the Power Cakes mix, the gluten-free Kodiak mix is lower in protein, by about half in fact. One 1/2 cup serving of the gluten-free mix is 6 grams of protein compared to the Power Cakes which is 14 grams per 1/2 cup serving.
With a few other staple pantry ingredients, this recipe can be prepared in 10 minutes or less. Swap blueberries for other fruit such as a sliced banana or strawberries. Or omit fruit for a plain oven protein pancake recipe.
What I love most about this Kodiak Cakes pancake recipe, it that it can be served hot or cold and makes a fantastic breakfast or portable snack. Once cooled, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Enjoy!

Kodiak Cakes Oven Pancake Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups Kodiak Cakes Flapjack & Waffle Mix
- 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
- 1/2 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup skim milk
- 2/3 cup blueberries optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Coat a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk Kodiak Cakes Flapjack & Waffle Mix, brown sugar, and baking powder.
- Add eggs, melted coconut oil, Greek yogurt, and milk to dry ingredients; mix until just combined.
- Pour mixture into prepared baking ban. Sprinkle with blueberries and bake for 20 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Can a big batch of these be frozen for later? What would your process be fir when it’s time to get out of the freezer & eat?
I haven’t tried to freeze and reheat them. I feel like they’d be OK if you reheat them in a toaster oven or air fryer to prevent getting too soggy. You’ll have to let me know what you try!
I’ve been looking for a good breakfast I can meal prep for myself, and this one is great. I switched it up based on what I had and flavour preferences, but the base recipe is perfect for that. I subbed butter for the oil, buttermilk for the milk, maple syrup for the brown sugar, and I added cinnamon, vanilla, and some sautéed apple chunks. It was so good! I have some bananas that are starting to look sad so next time I’ll use those instead of sugar and maybe toss some mini chocolate chips on top. Great recipe!
Great substitutions! I bet the recipe turned out excellent with bananas!
Answering my own question…I totally forgot the milk per the recipe🫣. I just added a little at the end because it was so thick(now I know why).
Cannot figure out how to delete my comment.
Anyone have any tips on having this not come out so dry? I substituted butter for the oil. I also added a little milk as mine was super thick and needed some liquid. I baked at the max time of 20 min. We still liked it, it was just crumbly.
Any thoughts?
This is the PERFECT breakfast meal prep. I made last week and my 7 year old daughter snuck so many bites that she asked me to make her a batch this week with strawberries. I pair with a protein shake and have an easy, quick breakfast on the go with at 350 cal and over 30g of protein. Thank you for creating and sharing this!
I’m so glad you (and your daughter!) are enjoying this recipe! I love that you’re pairing it with a shake for extra protein. Thanks for sharing!
Hey there! What a delightful read your Kodiak Cakes pancake recipe blog was! Your step-by-step instructions and cheerful commentary made me feel like I was right there in the kitchen with you, flipping those fluffy pancakes. Thanks for sharing your culinary expertise and spreading the joy of pancake perfection! Can’t wait to try out your recipe and add a little extra sweetness to my mornings. Keep those scrumptious recipes coming! 🌟
Is there a non dairy substitute for the Greek yogurt or can I just leave it still taste good?
You could substitute the Greek yogurt for applesauce or mashed bananas and get a similar *and slightly sweeter* end product 😊
What can I sub the yogurt for?
Has anyone substituted applesauce for oil?
I haven’t heard of anyone trying this yet. I might suggest substituting half the oil for applesauce for the best texture. You’ll have to let us know if you try it! 😊
I have been making this recipe for a few years it’s great! My subs are equal amount of maple syrup for the brown sugar, and applesauce for the coconut oil. 👌 it comes out great.
Yes I do this! I also use maple syrup instead of brown sugar. Turns out great!
I make this almost weekly! I would like to know if it would double well? I need to start making larger batches because it gets vaporized in my house 🙂
I’m glad the recipe went over well with the family! Yes, you can double the recipe and bake in two 9-x-13-inch pans. Enjoy!
I normally don’t write reviews but I had to take the time to tell you how good this was. So light and fluffy and filled with protein. Thank you!!
Hi Missy! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I am happy you enjoyed the recipe! 🙂 Kayla
What can you’ replace the coconut oil with
Hi Deb. Good question! You can substitute the coconut oil for melted butter (1/4 cup) and end up with a version that is just as scrumptious! Hope you enjoy! Kayla
We love these! Sometimes I put chocolate chips in for an extra treat for the kiddos. So delicious!! 😍
That sounds incredible! I am sure the kiddos love them! 🙂
Great morning or on-the-go snack. Not only do they taste great, but also keep you full with the added protein from Kodiak. Definitely worth having a pan of these around when you need a quick treat, boost of energy, or both! I have also tried this recipe with the peanut butter Kodiak mix. Highly recommended as well!
Thank you for the feedback Ian! Much appreciated! Adding the peanut butter Kodiak Cakes mix sounds amazing!
If I make a batch for a few days, should I store in fridge? Or just at room temp but covered? Thanks!
Hello! I prefer storing in the refrigerator. The texture seems to keep better this way! Enjoy! Kayla
We had these while staying at Kayla’s and they are amazing! Add some chocolate chips or berries for something extra👌🏼 Highly recommend!
