Health and fertility benefits of Lemon Glazed Spice Fritters

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). Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

Ingredients

SPICE FRITTERS
1/2 Cup Almond Flour
3 Tbsp. Erythritol
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1 Large Egg
1/2 tsp. Xanthan Gum
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Vanilla
Zest of 1/2 Lemon
2 Cups Fat of Your Choice (For Frying)


LEMON GLAZE
Juice of 1/4 Lemon
3 Tbsp. Powdered Erythritol

Instructions

1. Add your almond flour, baking powder, xanthan, cinnamon, and erythritol into a bowl.
2. Mix all of the ingredients until they are combined.
3. Add your egg and vanilla to the dry ingredients.
4. Mix the egg and vanilla well into the dry ingredients. Then, add your 1/2 lemon zest to the dough and continue to mix.
5. A sticky dough should be created from this, it willget stuck to your finger.
6. In a small sauce pan, bring your oil to 375F.
7. If you don’t have a thermometer, you can measure if the oil is ready by dropping a small piece of dough into the oil. The oil is ready when the small piece of dough immediately begins to fry.
8. Drop 3-4 chunks of dough into the oil at a time. Fry each batch of dough for about 2 minutes on each side, or until browned, and then flip over.
9. Continue to cook the other side for an additional 2 minutes, or until browned. Remove from the pan and cool on a paper towel while you continue to fry the other batches of fritters.
10. In a small ramekin, combine powdered erythritol and lemon juice.
11. Continue to mix the erythritol and lemon juice until a smooth icing has formed.
12. Dip the fritters into the icing and serve! You can add almond butter to the top of this if you’d like, I personally love it!
