Gingerbread Oatmeal
A simple and healthy oatmeal recipe featuring classic gingerbread spices such as ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Low FODMAP & Gluten-Free! Vegan option.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup quick oats
- 1/2 banana
- 1/4 tsp ginger ground
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon ground
- small sprinkle nutmeg ground
- small sprinkly cloves ground
- 1 tsp brown sugar (optional)
- 1 Tbsp almond butter
Instructions
- Pour the oats into a large bowl with 2/3 cups of water. Stir. Cook in microwave for 45 seconds. Mash banana and stir in. Cook in microwave for 35-45 more seconds. Watch carefully to avoid the oats boiling over the side of the bowl.
- Mix in the spices. Sprinkle brown sugar on top. Drizzle almond butter over the oatmeal.
Notes
- Feel free to use steel cut oats if you prefer them over quick oats!
- You can increase/decrease the amount of oats to 1/2 cup or 1/4 cup depending on your appetite.
- You can eat the other half of the banana on the side, maybe while the oatmeal is in the microwave!
- Unfortunately, molasses has not yet been tested for FODMAPs (Dec. 2016) so it is best to avoid it during the elimination phase of the diet. Brown sugar however is safe.
