📝 Ingredients:
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tsp vinegar)

- In a separate bowl, mix buttermilk, oil, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
- Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined. Fold in strawberries (coat them lightly with a tablespoon of flour first to prevent sinking).
