Health and fertility benefits of Apple Peanut Butter Delights

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). Apples will improve your body's sensitivity to insulin (Reference: http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/27/1/281.full)

Ingredients

6 whole Whole Wheat English Muffins, Split
1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
2 whole Apples, Cut Into Thin Slices
1/2 cup Sugar
2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Spread each English muffin half with about 1 tablespoon peanut butter. Lay slices of apple on top, overlapping and stacking a few.
Mix together the sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle a teaspoon or two over each English muffin half.
Bake them for 10 minutes, then broil (watch them constantly!) until the top is nice and bubbly and starting to caramelize. (You can sprinkle on a little more cinnamon sugar after the initial 10 minutes of baking if you want to add a little more!)
Allow to sit for 5 minutes, then serve!
