Fresh Strawberry Pancakes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
02 - 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
03 - 4 teaspoons baking powder
04 - 3 tablespoons sugar
05 - 2 cups leveled all-purpose flour

→ Wet Ingredients

06 - 4 tablespoons melted butter, allow to cool slightly
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla
08 - 1 egg, brought to room temperature
09 - 1 3/4 cups of milk

→ Mix-ins & Cooking

10 - Cooking oil or nonstick spray for greasing the skillet
11 - 1 1/4 cups diced strawberries, stems removed

# Instructions:

01 - In a big mixing bowl, stir together the salt, flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda until evenly combined.
02 - In a smaller bowl, mix the milk, vanilla, and egg. Gently add the cooled melted butter and stir until smooth.
03 - Pour the wet mix into the dry bowl. Stir just until blended. Don’t overmix. Carefully fold in the strawberry pieces.
04 - Preheat a pan over low-medium heat for 5 minutes. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
05 - Pour about 1/3 cup of the batter for each pancake. Wait until bubbles form and burst, then flip. Cook the other side for another minute or two, until golden-brown.
06 - Serve right away. Add your favorite toppings like extra strawberries, butter, syrup, or a dollop of whipped cream.

# Notes:

01 - Frozen strawberries are fine—thaw and drain them before using.
02 - You can refrigerate the batter for up to a day.
03 - To make it dairy-free, swap non-dairy milk and use oil instead of butter.
04 - For gluten-free, use a one-to-one flour substitute.
