Let’s be honest, is there anything better than warm bread straight out of the oven?! I don’t think so! It can take some creativity to make a FODMAP diet bread but once you get it down (like this recipe), it’s really not that hard. What I love about using pumpkin is the added moisture it gives to the bread without having to add a ton of sugar. It is important to make sure when you buy canned pumpkin, it is purely just pumpkin. This might sound obvious but some brands have other fillers in them. According to the Monash University application, a green light serving size of pumpkin is 1/3 cup.
Not only is pumpkin delicious and extremely versatile but it also has a ton of health benefits. Because there are so many great nutrients, you can feel even less guilty eating this FODMAP diet bread for breakfast…or at least that’s what I tell myself! Ha!
Some of my favorite health benefits from pumpkin:
- Packed with vitamins and minerals
- Low in calories & weight-loss friendly
- High in antioxidants
- Promotes healthy skin
