Low FODMAP Overnight Oats
Overnight oats is in my opinion one of the best breakfasts you can have. Filling and full of energy to keep you going all morning.
If you are one of those people who never has the time to eat breakfast, look no further. This breakfast can be eaten at home, in the office or even during the commute.
The base
The recipe is super simple, equal parts of oats and your milk of choice. Throw in a pinch of salt to help bring the flavours together and stop it tasting “watery”. This is also a great point to experiment with some different spices. I have eaten this breakfast many times and tried a large number of different flavourings such as Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Cardamom & Cloves.
Toppings
You can put almost anything in/on over night oats and it will taste delicious. My favourite type of topping is to add something sweet in combination with a few pieces of fresh fruit.
Rhubarb & Raspberry
The image above has got my home made low FODMAP Rhubarb Compote and a couple of raspberries. The creamy texture of the oats goes perfectly with the tart flavour of the rhubarb.
Apple, Brown Sugar & Cinnamon
Another classic combination is Cinnamon, Apple and a pinch of brown sugar in the base. Just be careful with the apple and make sure you stay within the safe serving size (Check the MONASH FODMAP App).
Peanut Butter, Banana & Honey
Maybe you are a peanut butter lover? Then why not try to add some peanut butter into the oat base and slice some fresh banana and drizzle some honey (up to 7 grams) on top! Try to avoid using a ripe banana as they are higher in FODMAPs than the less ripe ones.
