Why Cordyceps?
Cordyceps is a medicinal mushroom that has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine. It’s known for supporting energy, stamina, and mental clarity by boosting ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production, which is essential for delivering energy to your cells. Unlike coffee or sugar that can lead to a crash, Cordyceps provides sustained, balanced energy — ideal for powering through the day.
When added to your morning routine, Cordyceps not only helps fuel your body, but it can also support mental focus, making it the perfect addition to your pancakes!
The Recipe: Cordyceps Pancakes
⋒ 2 ripe bananas, mashed
⋒ 2 large eggs
⋒ 2 tbsp coconut flour
⋒ 2 tbsp corn flour
⋒ 1 tsp Shyft’s Cordyceps Mushroom Powder (adjust to your preference)
⋒ 1/2 tsp baking powder (optional, for fluffiness)
⋒ 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)
⋒ Pinch of salt
⋒ Coconut oil or butter for cooking
Instructions:
1. Mix the batter: In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the eggs and whisk until combined.
2. Add dry ingredients: Stir in the coconut flour, corn flour, cordyceps powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until you get a thick but pourable batter. If it’s too thick, add a tablespoon of water or milk.
3. Heat the pan: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and grease with coconut oil or butter.
4. Cook the pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.
5. Serve: Serve hot with your favourite toppings like fresh fruit, coconut yogurt, or a drizzle of honey.
