Cooking with collagen: how it goes into the batter
The four serves of Fountain of Youth Lifestyleโข Tripeptide Collagen go in with everything else, at step one. It is colourless, odourless and tasteless in food, so it will not interfere with the taste, texture or flavour of your pancakes. Whisk the batter properly before the first ladle hits the pan and every pancake in the stack carries its share. That is the whole idea behind the cookbook: collagen stirred into the food you were already making, rather than one more thing to remember. Read the science behind the tripeptides.
More collagen breakfasts
If pancakes are a weekend thing in your house, these two cover the weekdays: Granola Clusters, a big jar of them made in one batch, and Granola Cookies for the lunchbox. Both are from the same cookbook, and both take their collagen the same way.
One ingredient, stirred into the food you already make.
