Low FODMAP Creamy Spinach & Artichoke Dip
Low FODMAP Creamy Spinach & Artichoke Dip
We’ve had multiple requests for a low FODMAP creamy spinach and artichoke dip… my friends, this recipe will not disappoint! It’s warm, rich and creamy with gorgeous bits of tangy artichoke, and pops of savoury goodness from the garlic infused oil, parmesan cheese and spinach. This super scoopable dip is fantastic with crackers or corn chips, but is also fabulous in a toasted sandwich.
FODMAP notes: Did you know that artichoke hearts in brine have a low FODMAP serving size? That makes them perfect for using in dips and casseroles. This dip recipe also uses sour cream which is low FODMAP in small servings - you can also swap this ingredient for plain lactose free yoghurt.

garlic infused oil
FODMAP
Garlic infused oil is normally found in the oil section of your local supermarket or you can buy it online. It should be clear with no floating bits of garlic.
You can also make garlic infused oil at home by frying garlic cloves in cooking oil until they are golden and fragrant, then remove and discard the garlic before you continue cooking your meal. This is a low FODMAP way to capture the garlic flavour as the fructans can't leach into the oil.

- Measure out the spinach and thaw it. We popped ours in a bowl with a couple of tablespoons of water, covered it with a plate and microwaved it for 4 minutes until it was fully defrosted. Transfer it to a colander and allow the spinach to drain while you make the rest of the dip.
- Drain the artichokes and finely chop. Grate the cheeses.
- Chop the cream cheese into cubes and place into a large microwave-proof bowl. Heat in 30 second bursts until softened. Then mix through the sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic infused until smooth.
- Next squeeze the liquid out of the spinach - we gently squeezed ours with clean hands. Alternatively, you could place in a clean tea towel and squeeze or pat dry with paper towels. We find hand squeezing is the quickest and most effective method. Once the spinach is squeezed, measure out the amount you need and finely chop it using a pair of clean scissors (you don’t want chunky bits of spinach in the dip).
- Scatter the spinach and artichokes over the cream cheese mixture along with the grated cheese and parmesan. Season with a few grinds of salt and pepper. Then gently mix until just combined.
- Warm the dip in the microwave (try about 30 seconds or so). Taste and add an extra drizzle of garlic infused oil if needed.
- Serve warm or at room temperature with your favourite low FODMAP crackers, corn chips, veggie sticks (e.g. carrot & cucumber) or toasted bread. Enjoy!
- Storage tips: This low FODMAP creamy spinach and artichoke dip keeps for four days in the fridge (just heat the dip when you are ready to eat) or you can freeze it for up to 3 months. Make sure you heat it well and give it a good mix when you thaw it.
