Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity.
Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon instant espresso
1/2 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread, such as Nutella
1/4 cup toasted hazelnuts
1 cup whipped cream
Sliced bananas, optional
Instructions
Combine the heavy cream and espresso granules in a small mixing bowl. Stir until dissolved, about 5 minutes.
Add the espresso mixture to the bowl of a standing mixer, along with the chocolate-hazelnut spread. Mix with the whisk attachment on medium for 1 minute. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, and continue beating until very soft peaks form, about 1 minute. Transfer to a serving bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Garnish with the toasted hazelnuts and whipped cream and serve.
Cook's Note: I also often garnish this with some sliced bananas for my nephews.
