Use a standalone Toolbar and set it with an elevation, then inflate your menu in it.

You can add this item to your menu:

<item android:id="@+id/menu_search"
    android:title="@string/action_search"
    android:icon="@drawable/abc_ic_search_api_mtrl_alpha"
    pawesome:showAsAction="ifRoom|collapseActionView"
    pawesome:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"/>
