Overnight Pancake Breakfast Bake

This breakfast bake is what lazy Sunday mornings are made for—soft, fluffy pancakes soaked in a sweet vanilla custard, with warm cinnamon and a golden top. It’s a dish I first whipped up on a family holiday, using leftover pancakes and a little creativity. By morning, it had turned into a breakfast tradition. Prep it the night before, pop it in the oven, and start the day with a hug in a dish.

Ingredients

Scale

24 frozen pancakes, halved

6 large eggs

1 cup evaporated milk

1½ cups whole milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 tsp sugar

Dash of nutmeg

½ cup flour

4 tbsp melted butter

Cinnamon to taste

¼ cup brown sugar

Instructions

Grease a 9×13” baking dish. Layer halved pancakes in rows, cut side down.

In a bowl, whisk eggs, evaporated milk, whole milk, vanilla, sugar, nutmeg, flour, and melted butter.

Pour the mixture evenly over the pancakes.
