Mandarin Poppy Seed Pancakes

We are gearing up for a spring break that will be a combination of a staycation here in New Jersey and a trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania. One of the things we are counting on is leisurely breakfasts spent lingering over pancakes, bacon, and tall glasses of orange juice (maybe a mimosa for me!).

These mandarin poppy seed pancakes are on my list to make. They look divine!
