All I can say is wow! This was the best stack of pancakes ive ever made! The recipe is super easy and theres loads of ways you can change it up!
I added maca root powder to the recipe, which is optional, but adds a whole load of nutrition to the pancakes, so if you can get your hands on some I highly reccomend! Maca has been used to treat many different ailments such as PMS symptoms and to increase libido in both males and females. Here is a little list of some other health benefits of maca root…
• increases energy
• increases libido and fertility
• better sleep
• helps your body adapt to stress
• increases memory and brain power
• anti-acne properties
• increases endurance and stamina
• reduces symptoms of PMS and menopause
• helps to reduce aches and pains
• strengthens hair and reduces hair loss
