Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 pinches ground nutmeg
4 pinches salt
12 tablespoons butter
1 1/3 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 15 muffin cups with paper muffin liners.
Sift the flour, cornstarch , baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl.
Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Beat in the vanilla with the last egg. Mix in the flour mixture alternately with the milk. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 15 to 20 minutes.

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.
