Instructions

  1. Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together milk, egg, and butter in a separate bowl. Stir milk mixture into flour mixture until just blended and smooth. Let stand 15 minutes.

  2. Heat griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium heat; butter. Pour about 1/4 cup batter for each pancake on hot griddle. Cook until puffed, tops are covered with bubbles, and edges look dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook until plump and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Place pancakes in a single layer on a baking sheet, and keep warm in a 175 °F oven up to 30 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

  3. Wipe griddle clean with a paper towel and increase heat to medium-high. Cook sausage until no longer pink in the middle, 3 to 4 minutes per side.

  4. Top four pancakes with sausage, avocado, eggs, and arugula, dividing evenly. Top with remaining pancakes. Serve immediately.

Why this Pancake Breakfast Sandwich with Sausage and Avocado works for PCOS

Eating a substantial breakfast like this Pancake Breakfast Sandwich with Sausage and Avocado is one of the highest-leverage moves you can make for PCOS. In the Jakubowicz et al. 2013 trial published in Clinical Science, women with PCOS who front-loaded calories to breakfast reduced fasting insulin by 56% and increased ovulation rates 50%, with no change in total calories. Front-loading works because insulin sensitivity is highest in the morning and lowest at night.
