Creating delicious Pancake Poppers is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Add Extras: If desired, fold in chocolate chips, blueberries, or your choice of fruits for added flavor.
5. Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You may lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.
6. Cook the Poppers: Using a tablespoon or small scoop, pour small amounts of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Flip: Carefully flip each popper and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
8. Keep Warm: Transfer the cooked poppers to a plate and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm while cooking the remaining batter.
9. Repeat: Continue until all batter is used, adjusting the heat as necessary.
10. Serve: Enjoy your Pancake Poppers warm with powdered sugar, syrup, or your favorite dipping sauces.

With these easy steps, you’ll have a plate full of delicious Pancake Poppers ready to enjoy in no time!
