Health and fertility benefits of Honey Caramels Recipe

One tbsp of honey has a glycemic index (GI) of 55. 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. Walnuts are low on the glycemic index. What’s more, they also lower the glycemic index of other foods that you eat in conjunction with these nuts. Any kind of nuts provide a healthy source of fat and a great way to encourage PCOS weight loss.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon plus 1/4 cup butter, divided
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup honey
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Line a 8-in. square pan with foil; grease the foil with 1 teaspoon butter and set aside.
In a large heavy saucepan, combine the cream, honey, sugar and remaining butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until a candy thermometer reads 238 °.
Using a pastry brush dipped in cold water, wash down the sides of the pan to eliminate sugar crystals. Cook, stirring constantly, until a candy thermometer reads 255 ° (hard-ball stage). Stir in walnuts and vanilla; return mixture to 255 °.
Remove from the heat. Pour into prepared pan (do not scrape saucepan). Let stand until firm, about 5 hours or overnight.
Using foil, lift candy out of pan; discard foil. Cut candy into 1-in. squares. Wrap individually in waxed paper; twist ends.
