Ingredients
- 2 pieces English muffins
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Whipped cream
- 2 sprigs Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Slice the strawberries into halves or quarters, depending on their size. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow it to melt completely.
Step 3
Add the sliced strawberries to the skillet, along with the granulated sugar. Stir gently to coat the strawberries evenly with the sugar.
Step 4
Cook the strawberries for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and begin to caramelize. The mixture should thicken slightly into a syrupy consistency.
Step 5
Add the vanilla extract to the skillet in the last minute of cooking and stir to combine. Remove the skillet from heat and let the caramelized strawberries cool slightly.
Step 6
While the strawberries are cooling, slice the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown.
Step 7
Place the toasted English muffin halves on serving plates. Spoon the warm caramelized strawberries evenly over each muffin half.
Step 8
Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream. Garnish with a mint leaf for an extra touch of freshness, if desired.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy the decadent combination of caramelized strawberries and crisp English muffins.
