Five easy ways to use baobab powder

Stir a teaspoon into yoghurt. The tartness cuts the richness and turns plain yoghurt into something worth eating slowly.

Add it to a smoothie with banana and dates. Baobab keeps the sweetness from becoming flat.

Whisk it into water with a little honey and ice for a simple cold drink.

Fold it into pancake or muffin batter for a fruity lift without extra sugar.

Sprinkle it over sliced fruit — pineapple and mango especially — the way you might use lime.
