Keep it FODMAP friendly
Looking for a desert fit for a foodie? This low FODMAP cinnamon toast sundae is dressed to impress! Check out the notes below for tips on keeping this recipe FODMAP friendly.
First up, toast! If you’re in the elimination phase of the program, you’ll need to use gluten-free bread. According to Monash, gluten-free bread is low FODMAP in servings of 2 slices of bread (53) grams per serving. Servings of 3.5 slices (91 g) are high in the FODMAPs fructose and fructan.
We’ll be using one slice of bread, which works out to 26 g per serving. This is well within Monash’s recommended range.
Remember, unless you have celiac disease, you’re managing the FODMAP fructan, not gluten itself.
We’ll also be using strawberries and blueberries. According to Monash, strawberries don’t have any detectable FODMAPs. So these won’t add anything to your FODMAP load.
The Monash app lists blueberries as low FODMAP in servings of 1/4 cup (40 g) per sitting. Servings of 1/3 cup (50 g) per serving or more are high in the FODMAP fructan.
We’ll be using a sprinkle of blueberries (no more than 1/8 of a cup). This works out to 20 g per serving. This is well within Monash’s recommended range.
Side note: You can actually use whatever berries you want, just make sure that the FODMAP math works out to 1 total serving of fruit.
Last but not least, ice cream!!! If you’re in the elimination phase, you’ll need to use lactose-free ice cream. Good lactose-free ice cream can be hard to come by, so I like to make my own!
If you can’t find anything you like at your local store, definitely check out my low FODMAP vanilla ice cream recipe! It makes 1-2 servings per batch, so it’s just right for this tantalizing dessert!
Plus, my ice cream recipe has no FODMAPs, so it won’t add anything to your FODMAP load (yeah, it’s literally magic!).
