Health and fertility benefits of Nutty Parmesan Herb Scones Recipe | MyRecipes
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 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup warm water
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 large eggs
4.5 ounces white whole-wheat flour (about 1 cup)
2/3 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 ounces grated Parmesan cheese (about 3/4 cup)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 °F.
Combine oats and 1/4 cup water in a large bowl.
Combine oil, sugar, and eggs in a small bowl, beating well with a whisk. Add egg mixture to oat mixture, tossing to combine.
Weigh or lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, nuts, flaxseed, thyme, salt, baking soda, pepper, and cheese. Add flour mixture to oat mixture; toss with a fork until a sticky dough forms. With floured hands, knead dough 2 to 3 times. Divide dough into 12 equal portions, and shape each portion into a 1/4-inch-thick triangle. Place triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 °F for 16 to 18 minutes or until golden.
