How to consume english oatmeal pancakes without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein such as Greek yogurt or cottage cheese as a topping for your pancakes. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Top your pancakes with a small amount of nuts or seeds like almonds, walnuts, or chia seeds. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Opt for Whole Grains
Ensure that the oats used in your pancakes are whole oats rather than instant. Whole grains are digested more slowly, leading to a more gradual increase in blood sugar.
Add Fiber
Include additional fiber-rich ingredients in the batter, such as flaxseeds or chia seeds. This can help slow digestion and reduce the blood sugar impact.
Include Cinnamon
Sprinkle cinnamon on your pancakes or mix it into the batter. Cinnamon has been shown to help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.
Pair with Low-Sugar Fruits
Serve your pancakes with a side of berries like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries. These fruits are lower in sugar and can provide additional fiber.
Control Portions
Be mindful of portion sizes. Eating smaller portions can prevent excessive carbohydrate intake and help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Hydrate
Drink a glass of water before eating your pancakes. Proper hydration can aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after your meal. Exercise can help clear glucose from the bloodstream more efficiently.
Monitor Ingredients
Avoid adding sugar or syrup to your pancakes. If sweetening is necessary, use a small amount of natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit.

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