Instructions
 

  • Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
  • Preheat oven to 375 °F.
  • Spray half sheet pan (18" x 13" x 1") with nonstick cooking spray.
    For 25 servings, use 1 pan.
    For 50 servings, use 2 pans.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine pancake mix and water. Whisk until smooth.
  • Pour pancake batter into pan and bake in the oven for 45–50 minutes.
  • While pancakes are cooking, separate pears and syrup. Place pears in a medium bowl. Pour syrup in a large nonstick pot.
  • Add cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract to cold or room temperature syrup. Whisk until smooth.
  • Heat syrup mixture on medium-high heat, whisk continuously until it begins to boil, about 10 minutes.
  • Add pears to syrup mixture. Stir. Bring mixture to a boil, about 10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 8–10 minutes, or until it becomes nectar-thick. Stir often to prevent pears from sticking to the pan. Heat to 140 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds. Remove from heat.
  • When pancakes are cooked completely, cut and serve.
    For 25 servings, cut pan into 25 even pieces.
    For 50 servings, cut each pan into 25 even pieces.
  • Serve 1 pancake square with ½ cup spiced pears. Serve immediately, or keep warm at 140 °F or higher.

Notes

  • Contains wheat (pancake mix). Pancake mix can be a hidden source of common allergens, which include milk, peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, fish, shellfish, soy, wheat, and sesame.
  • To verify pancakes are done, insert a wooden toothpick into the center of the pan. If wet batter sticks to the toothpick, the pancake needs more baking time.
  • Pancake shrinks away from pan sides after cooking. Cut pieces evenly.
  • The symbol indicates the recipe is whole grain-rich.
  • Creditable grains contribution calculated using the Recipe Analysis Workbook, Method A.
