Superfood your breakfast
Who said pancakes can’t be healthy? Add some zing and a nutritional punch to your breakfast by adding Baobab powder to your pancakes.
Ingredients
- 1 cup buckwheat flour (100g)
- 1 cup almond milk (200ml)
- 2 tbsp flaxseed mixed with 4 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp Bumbleroot Organic Baobab Powder
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup blueberries (frozen or fresh)
Baobab has more antioxidants than acai, goji, or blueberries.
One serving has about 25% of your DV of dietary fiber & vitamin C.
Directions
Start by making your flax ‘eggs’. Mix the flaxseed and water together in a bowl and leave to thicken up for 5 minutes. Add the buckwheat flour and baobab to a bowl and mix together then add the almond milk, maple syrup, the now thicken flax mixture and blueberries. Stir well. Heat a little coconut oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Using a large spoon transfer some of the mixture to the pan to make a pancake. After a minute or so the sides of the pancake should begin to brown and little bubbles will appear. At this point flip the pancake over using a spatula and cook for another minute or two on the other side. Repeat these steps until you’ve run out of mixture! You should end up with around 5-6 pancakes to enjoy!
When the baobab fruit ripens it falls to the ground and is harvested by the local community.
The pulp dries in the fruit and is ground into a fine powder.
The baobab trees are hundreds to thousands of years old and are central to an ecosystem of pollinators, wildlife, and other plants.

Our Baobab is harvested in Zimbabwe
We reinvest 2% of the revenue from our Baobab Powder back into our supplying communities and they decide how they spend the funds. Last year, the community decided to purchase notebooks for six schools.
