Are Cranberries Low FODMAP?

Last updated on Sep 12th, 2016 Authored by Alana Scott     Reviewed by Joanna Baker (APD)

Are Cranberries Low FODMAP?

It just wouldn’t be Christmas without cranberries! But are cranberries low FODMAP? You will be pleased to know that you can enjoy some cranberries this festive season. Check out the article to find out what cranberry products are low FODMAP.

FODMAP Content of Cranberry Products

Fresh Cranberries (Untested but Considered Low FODMAP)

Although Monash University have not officially tested fresh cranberries, they have released a statement saying, “9g dried cranberries (is the equivalent to around 130gram fresh cranberries) is low FODMAP and should be well tolerated by most” (1). This means you should be able to enjoy fresh cranberries in your festive cooking. Please note that 130 grams is equivalent to 4.6 ounces.

Dried Cranberries (FODMAP Content Dependent on Serving Size)

Small serves of dried cranberries are low FODMAP, which means you can safely add a 1 tablespoon (13g or 0.45oz) serve per person to your favourite salad or muesli. You do need to watch your serving size as dried cranberries contain moderate levels of fructans (oligosaccharides) at a 2 tablespoon (26g or 0.92oz) serve (2).

Cranberry Juice (Low FODMAP)

Cranberry juice is low FODMAP at 250ml (1 glass serve) (2). This means cranberry juice is a great mixer for Christmas cocktails! When buying your cranberry juice just check that it does not contain added apple juice or other high FODMAP ingredients.

Are you ready to take control of your gut symptoms?

YES I WANT TOO!

No thanks, my gut is perfect.

Is store bought cranberry sauce low FODMAP?

The FODMAP content of store bought cranberry sauce is likely to vary greatly depending on whether fresh, dried or reconstituted berries have been used. Always check ingredient labels for added high FODMAP ingredients. If you want to use store bought cranberry sauce my suggestion would be to test your tolerance level with a 1 tablespoon serving size and increase your serve from there.

You can find my low FODMAP cranberry sauce recipe here!

Final Thoughts

Cranberries can be a great addition to your festive cooking. Just remember to watch your portion sizes for dried cranberries and store bought cranberry sauce to avoid FODMAP issues.

Leave me a ❤️ if this is your sort of meal!It's lunch time here and I always find fritters are always a good option when I don't know what to eat.

These cheesy broccoli fritters are a favourite. What's not to love about tender pieces of broccoli and zucchini all packaged up in a cheesy batter and served with zesty lime aioli?

You can grab this low FODMAP and gluten free recipe from alittlebityummy.com or follow my profile link.

What’s your favourite lunch at the moment?

Calling all pizza lovers! 🍕Who enjoys a sneaky slice of pizza? I know I do.

Did you know it's possible to make a range of different pizza options low FODMAP? 

You need to find a gluten free pizza base and create a base sauce using a dollop of tomato paste, a sprinkle of oregano, and a few grinds of black pepper. Then add your favourite low FODMAP veggies and plain cooked meat. You can even use a small serve of chorizo or salami.

Then top with mozzarella or cheddar cheese which are both low FODMAP options or mix it up and add a garlic oil infused mayo instead.

One of my favourite combos is smoked chicken, salami, spinach & red capsicum/pepper 😍 What are your go-to toppings?

Oh hello 2021... thank you for finally joining us! Congratulations to everyone who made it through the homeschooling, sourdough baking, and Zoom meetings with no pants on year that was 2020.

Normally I’d be bouncing around setting lofty New Year resolutions right about now... but I’ve kinda lost my mojo. So instead I’ve decided just to set a few simple intentions for the year:

1️⃣ Make the bed a device free zone and get better sleep.

2️⃣Eat more veggies by making them fun.

3️⃣Take more ‘me’ time to recharge.

4️⃣Accept that I am me and that despite the health challenges and crazy struggles I’m exactly who I am meant to be and I don’t need to change.

If you want to hear more about these intentions then follow my bio link.

Otherwise leave me a comment below with your intentions for 2021 👇

Christmas cake time! I’m actually not a big fan of Christmas Cake so I made a spiced carrot cake instead.

It’s my gluten free and low FODMAP option that the whole family love.

What treats are you enjoying this Christmas?

Who's making stuffing for Christmas? I am an absolute fan of stuffing that's crunchy on the outside but fluffy on the inside.

This my friends is my 'go-to' recipe as I can prep it the day before and then just cook it for a few minutes on Christmas Day. It's also really easy to make low FODMAP, gluten free and dairy free to suit the needs of you and your guests.

Get the recipe from alittlebityymmy.com or follow my profile link.

Also if you have any leftover stuffing then try pan frying it and adding a side of eggs, bacon and spinach for an epic breakfast 🙌

What sides are you making for Christmas?
