Feel free to put your twist on this recipe! You can swap the whole milk for almond milk or use coconut oil in place of butter for a dairy-free version. Add blueberries or bananas to the batter for extra fruitiness, or sprinkle in some chocolate chips for a decadent touch.

Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, beat eggs, then mix in milk, strawberry puree, melted butter, and vanilla.
3. Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently. It’s okay if there are a few lumps.
4. Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat, greasing lightly with butter or oil.
5. Use 1/4 cup of batter per pancake, cooking for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook again until golden.
6. Repeat with remaining batter, keeping pancakes warm if necessary.
7. Serve stacked, topped with strawberries, whipped cream or ice cream, and a drizzle of syrup.

Serving Suggestions
These pancakes are delightful on their own, but consider pairing them with a side of crispy bacon or a fresh fruit salad for a complete meal. They also pair wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee or a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.

Pro Tips for Success
– Avoid overmixing your batter to keep the pancakes light and airy.
– Use a medium heat setting to ensure they cook evenly without burning.
– Make your strawberry puree by blending fresh strawberries with a splash of lemon juice for extra zing.

Storing and Reheating
Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, simply warm them in a toaster or oven for a few minutes until heated through.
