A vibrant and playful twist on a breakfast classic, these tie-dye sheet pan pancakes will brighten up your morning plate. Perfect for special occasions or adding a splash of color to your weekend brunch routine.
I got a new job as a recipe developer for Tasting Table, and I recently came out with a recipe for Buttermilk Sheet Pan Pancakes.
You know I like to make my recipes special and unique. So I originally pitched to my editor a matcha-strawberry-flavored recipe, but he wanted to keep it classic buttermilk to really highlight the unique sheet pan method.
But there are so many basic sheet pan pancake recipes online already!
So I decided to post my own special recipe here on the blog.
I’ve fully embraced Southern California culture since moving to San Diego—to the point that I’m making my food tie-dye!

PS: If you want the real deal on tie-dye apparel, check out NOiice Dyes. I see him at the farmer’s market all the time, and one of these days I’ll buy his Ocean Potion hoodie.
PPS Speaking of… you can get really artsy and creative with the colors here. Next time, I’ll make a tie-dye sheet pan pancake inspired by those Ocean Potion colors.
This recipe is perfect for
- Kids parties (top with whipped cream and sprinkles!)
- Using up all that food dye hiding in your pantry
- Jazzing up an otherwise ordinary Saturday morning
- Having fun and getting creative with your cooking
