Ingredients

Servings 4

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
8 tablespoons light brown sugar
4 firm ripe bananas, peeled, cut on a diagonal into 1/4"-thick slices
4 6" rounds puff pastry cut from one package of puff pastry, thawed
Special equipment: Four 5"-diameter, 1"-high crème brûlée dishes

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 °F. Place dishes on a rimmed baking sheet. Smear bottom of each dish with 1 tablespoon butter. Sprinkle each evenly with 2 tablespoons sugar. Overlap slices from 1 banana over sugar, arranging in concentric circles to cover. Top each dish with 1 puff pastry round, tucking in edges of pastry.
Bake until pastry is golden and puffed and filling is bubbly, 20-25 minutes. Invert onto plates.

Why this Banana Tartes Tatin works for PCOS

Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Banana Tartes Tatin works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
