photo by Yunhee KimGabriel requested pancakes for Valentine's Day so I decided to make them a little more special. Everyone really enjoyed them except Gabriel. He didn't like the strawberries, go figure. Jason really liked how light and fluffy they were compared to other recipes. Definitely a winner in our house.

Strawberry Pancakes
Ingredients:
* 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 large egg
* 1 cup milk
* 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
* 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted, plus more for serving
* 2 cups sliced strawberries
* Pure maple syrup, for serving
Directions:
1.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and vanilla. Preheat a nonstick griddle over medium heat.
2.
Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry. Stir in the melted butter. The batter should be thick and smooth. Fold in the strawberries.
3.
Spoon the batter onto the griddle 1/4 cup at a time. Cook the pancakes until set and thoroughly bubbly, about 3 minutes. Flip them with a spatula and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Serve with butter and maple syrup.
