Recipe by EVOY My grandfather used to make this oatmeal for me on Saturday mornings accompanied by buttered wheat toast. I miss those Saturdays.

Ingredients

Servings 4

3 3/4 cups water
2 cups rolled oats
1 pinch salt
4 teaspoons butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup non-dairy creamer
4 tablespoons milk
1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, heat water to boiling. Reduce heat to low; stir in oats and salt. Cook until oats have thickened, about 5 minutes.
Place 1 teaspoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar in the bottom of each four serving bowls. Spoon oatmeal into each bowl and stir until butter and sugar are melted. Pour 1/4 cup of creamer and 1 tablespoon of milk over each bowl. Top each serving with another tablespoon of brown sugar. Serve hot.

Why this Grandpa Hubbard's Oatmeal works for PCOS

Eating a substantial breakfast like this Grandpa Hubbard's Oatmeal 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.
