Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/3 cups milk
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed

Instructions

  1. Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Whisk in the milk, egg, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until only a few lumps remain. Let the batter stand for 5 full minutes for extra fluffiness.
  2. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat, and brush with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. When the oil shimmers, slowly pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the hot pan. Cook until bottom is browned, about 2 minutes, then flip and cook until the center of the pancake is set and the other side is browned, about 2 more minutes. Keep warm until serving.

PCOS-Friendly Foods in This Recipe

This recipe contains the following foods that may benefit PCOS management: Cinnamon.

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly.
