All too often we hear people say they think they cannot enjoy fruits and vegetables while on the Elimination Phase of the Low FODMAP Diet. The fact is that many have quite generous low FODMAP serving sizes, and then there are items like apples that have very small low FODMAP servings. But that doesn’t mean you cannot have them!
Pink Lady and Granny Smith apples have been lab tested by both Monash University and FODMAP Friendly. Use your apps to keep track of updates, but rest assured that these recipes, per serving, contain low FODMAP amounts of apples.
EXAMPLE: If a recipe contains 200g of apples, that might sound like a lot, but if the recipe is divided into 12 servings, that means the suggested serving contains a lab tested low FODMAP amount of apple. Let’s get to our 14 low FODMAP recipes featuring apples!
