The low FODMAP diet requires a lot of planning and preparation for every meal. These low FODMAP brownies are a game changer. Three simple ingredients and a five minute prep time. Thank you, Betty Crocker!
I always have a few boxes of Betty Crocker Gluten Free Brownie Mix on hand for numerous occasions, including taking to parties or hosting guests. Not to mention quenching my sweet-tooth here and there. You can dress them up or dress them down. And adding an extra egg will give them a cake-like texture. This little box is honestly one of the most versatile items in my pantry!
As a bonus, I never tell anyone that they’re gluten free (unless asked) and no one can even tell. I feel like that’s a baseline for great tasting food… people who are lucky enough to eat anything shouldn’t be able to tell that it’s fitting within numerous dietary restrictions.
Low FODMAP Brownie Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 Box of Betty Crocker Gluten Free Brownie Mix
- 1/4 Cup Shortening (I use Crisco
)
- 2 Extra Large Eggs
Directions:
- Preheat oven to to 350 degrees for shiny metal pan or 325 degrees for dark or nonstick pan.
- Grease (or use a low FODMAP cooking spray) bottom of pan.
- In medium bowl, stir all ingredients until well blended (batter will be thick).
- Spread in pan.
- Bake as directed (8″x8″ pan, bake 28-31 minutes. 9″x9″ pan, bake 26-30minutes. 11″x7″ pan, bake 23-26 minutes.) or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean
- Cool brownies, cut and serve.
- Store tightly covered.
Notes:
- Like normal brownies, you can add anything to make them unique, including crushed nuts, frosting, fruit topping or all-natural, gluten free sprinkles
as shown in the picture. Just make sure that your additions fit within the safe low FODMAP foods.
