How to consume Blueberry Pancakes without glucose spikes
Use Whole Grain Flour
Opt for whole grain or almond flour instead of refined white flour to create your pancakes. These flours digest more slowly and won't cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels.
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, egg whites, or protein powder into your pancake batter. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Top with Nuts or Seeds
Sprinkle your blueberry pancakes with chopped nuts such as almonds or walnuts, or seeds like chia or flax seeds. These additions provide healthy fats and fiber, which can slow down the absorption of sugar.
Use Natural Sweeteners
Replace sugar in your pancake recipe with natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit, which do not affect blood sugar levels as significantly.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Sides
Pair your pancakes with fiber-rich foods such as a small serving of berries or a mixed greens salad. Fiber helps to slow digestion and prevent spikes in blood sugar.
Cinnamon
Add a dash of cinnamon to your pancake batter or sprinkle it on top. Cinnamon has been shown to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Drink Water
Ensure you’re drinking plenty of water with your meal. Staying hydrated can aid in the metabolism of sugars and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Be mindful of your portion sizes. Eating smaller amounts can help in managing blood sugar levels more effectively.
Avoid Syrups with Added Sugars
Instead of traditional maple syrup, try topping your pancakes with Greek yogurt and fresh blueberries or a homemade berry compote without added sugars.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity such as a walk after your meal. Exercise can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake by your cells.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
