On a lightly floured work surface, turn out dough and gently knead 2 –3 times until dough just comes together, being careful to not overwork. Roll out dough to a 1/2" thickness; cut with a 2" biscuit cutter or small glass that has been dipped in flour.

Why this 3-Ingredient Buttermilk Biscuits works for PCOS
Eating a substantial breakfast like this 3-Ingredient Buttermilk Biscuits 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.
