Ingredient Notes:

Granulated sugar - This is generally considered low FODMAP in small amounts. However, excessive consumption of sugar may have a laxative effect and could worsen IBS symptoms in some individuals. It's best to consume sugar in moderation.

Lactose-free Yoghurt - Despite the problematic lactose being removed, it’s important to check the label for other FODMAP ingredients. For example, some brands use soya instead of milk, which can be high FODMAP above 30ml (1/8 cup).

Blueberries - They are considered low FODMAP in small to moderate amounts. So make sure you only have a handful!

Gluten-free all-purpose flour - With so many different options out there, it can be hard to choose. Dove's Farm Gluten Free Plain Flour is always a great choice as it can work with so many different recipes.
