Health and fertility benefits of Peach, Plum and Blackberry Cobbler

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. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060). Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

Ingredients

6 peaches, peeled, pitted, sliced
2 red plums, halved, pitted, sliced
1 1/2-pint basket blackberries or 1 1/2 cups frozen, unthawed
2/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons chilled whipping cream
3 tablespoons golden brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of ground cloves
Sweetened whipped cream
