Low FODMAP Note:
Each 1/2 cup serving keeps the oats, almonds, and pumpkin seeds within Monash University low FODMAP serving sizes. Use rolled oats (not quick oats), a low FODMAP milk like lactose-free or almond milk, and (optional) maple syrup instead of honey. Check fruit toppings in the Monash FODMAP app, since dried fruit is only low FODMAP in small amounts.Nutrition
