Ingredients

• 500 grams fresh strawberries
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Rinse the strawberries under cool running water, then gently pat them dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

Hull the strawberries by removing their green tops, then slice each strawberry in half. For larger strawberries, consider quartering them to ensure even roasting.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, balsamic vinegar, and vanilla extract. Toss gently to coat the strawberries evenly.

Step 5

Spread the strawberries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This allows them to roast and caramelize properly.

Step 6

Roast the strawberries in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring gently halfway through, until they are softened and slightly caramelized.

Step 7

Remove the roasted strawberries from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. The juices released during roasting will thicken slightly as they cool.

Step 8

Serve the roasted strawberries warm or at room temperature as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, ice cream, or even enjoyed on their own.
