How to consume Pancakes without glucose spikes
Choose Whole Grain Pancakes
Opt for pancakes made with whole grain flour or almond flour instead of refined white flour to slow down carbohydrate absorption.
Add Fiber-Rich Toppings
Include toppings like berries, chia seeds, or sliced almonds to increase fiber and slow glucose absorption.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a tablespoon of natural peanut butter or a few slices of avocado to your pancakes to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Use Natural Sweeteners
Replace syrup or sugar with a small amount of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon to add sweetness without spiking glucose levels.
Pair with Protein
Eat pancakes with a side of Greek yogurt or a couple of scrambled eggs to balance your meal with protein.
Watch Portion Sizes
Keep your portion size moderate to prevent excessive intake of carbohydrates at one time.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water throughout your meal, which can help with digestion and prevent rapid rises in blood sugar.
Add a Vinegar-Based Sauce
Include a small amount of vinegar-based dressing or sauce, as vinegar can help reduce blood sugar spikes.
Time Your Meal Wisely
Have your pancakes at breakfast, when insulin sensitivity is typically higher, rather than late at night.
Engage in Light Activity
Take a short walk after your meal to help your body use up glucose more efficiently.
