Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg. Add the milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter, mixing until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
- Gently fold in the sliced strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or cooking spray.
- For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then carefully flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and fluffy.
- Repeat this process with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
- Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with additional sliced strawberries for an extra touch of sweetness.
Tips
- For a richer flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
- You can substitute almond milk or any non-dairy milk for a lactose-free option.
- To enhance the strawberry flavor, toss the sliced strawberries with a little sugar before folding them into the batter.
