Ingredients

Instructions

Whisk paprika, garlic, salt, black pepper, cayenne, thyme, and red pepper flakes in a large bowl. Add pork and maple syrup. Using your hands, combine well.
Form 16 (2"-wide) patties about 1/2" thick with damp hands and arrange on a large parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet.
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium. Cook patties in batches, adding remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to skillet between batches, until golden brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Why this Maple Andouille Breakfast Sausage works for PCOS

Eating a substantial breakfast like this Maple Andouille Breakfast Sausage 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.
