Health and fertility benefits of Blueberry Buckle
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).
Ingredients
1/4 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. dark brown sugar
1/2 c. all-purpose flour
.13 tsp. ground cinnamon
4 tbsp. butter

To prepare crumble: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and break apart with fingers. Refrigerate.
To prepare batter: In a medium-size bowl, cream butter and sugar, then mix in egg. Sift together dry ingredients. Add half the dry ingredients to the creamed butter; mix, then add buttermilk; mix, then add remaining dry ingredients; mix just to combine. Refrigerate batter 30 minutes.
