Health and fertility benefits of 2-Ingredient Palmiers
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 Sheet Puff Pastry, Thawed
2 Tablespoons To 3 Tablespoon Cinnamon Sugar (or Nutella)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 ºF. Lay the puff pastry sheet out on a piece of parchment paper. Gently roll the puff pastry to flatten the folds. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the entire surface of the puff pastry.
Fold two opposite ends of the pastry sheet toward the middle, 1/4 of the way in. Fold each side in again so the folded edges touch. Then fold the puff pastry over one more time, creating a rolled stack, 6 layers high.
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into four equal sections. Then cut each section into 5 thin pieces.
Move the parchment paper over to a baking sheet. Then gently lay the rolled pieces flat on the parchment paper, 3 inches apart. Bake for 15 –20 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and serve!
Notes: Don’t have cinnamon sugar in your pantry? Make some to have on hand! Mix 1/2 cup sugar with 4 teaspoons cinnamon. Done!
