Why this Tea Cakes Recipe | MyRecipes works for PCOS

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 Tea Cakes Recipe | MyRecipes works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
