Low FODMAP Dark Chocolate Granola Recipe
Low FODMAP Dark Chocolate Granola Recipe
Ever since becoming a coeliac I have missed granola for breakfast... I'm one of the unfortunate ones who just can't tolerate the avenin protein in oats! So I've been experimenting, and have created a low FODMAP & gluten free dark chocolate granola recipe using quinoa flakes (because really who doesn't love chocolate for breakfast!). Keep in mind if you are just low FODMAP you can try using standard rolled oats in this recipe instead of quinoa flakes - in theory they should taste great as well.
FODMAP note: Sunflower seeds are low FODMAP in 1 tablespoon servings. The amount used in this recipe is low FODMAP per serving of granola.

- Preheat the oven to 120ºC (250ºF) bake function.
- Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl (quinoa flakes/oats, chopped sunflower and pumpkin seeds, coconut chips, brown sugar, dutch cocoa powder, quinoa puffs or rice bubbles.
- Mix the olive oil, vanilla and maple syrup together. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix well.
- Evenly spread the granola mixture over two baking trays lined with baking paper. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, then gently shake or stir the granola and bake for another 15 minutes. Then add the dark chocolate chips and a sprinkle of sea salt (to taste) and bake for another 5 minutes.
- Let the granola cool for 1 to 2 hours. Then store in air tight jars or containers.
- Enjoy a 1/2 cup serve as part of your breakfast or a snack! I love mixing mine with some coconut yoghurt and a serve of fruit.
