1-First, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line one or two cookie sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, ½ cup oil, ½ teaspoon vanilla, and ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until well combined.

2-Next, add the 1¾ cups all-purpose flour and 1½ teaspoons baking powder, and mix until combined. Gently fold in the 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries just until combined, taking care not to over mix. For even baking, form the dough into balls about the size of a golf ball or drop spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets and sprinkle with a little granulated sugar.

3-Bake for approximately 15 minutes until lightly golden. Let the cookies cool completely before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate for extra flavor. The whole process takes just about 25 minutes, with 10 minutes prep and 15 minutes cook time, making it ideal for busy days.
