Did you know that recently we submitted coconut yoghurt for testing?

We found that at a serve size of 85g, the delicious snack is indeed low FODMAP!

Why test coconut yoghurt?

For those of us Fodmappers who are lactose intolerant, a cultured dairy product like whole milk yogurt and kefir must be consumed in small quantities as tolerated. But now the good news is that many cultured products, such as coconut yoghurt, can be made with coconut milk! Coconut yoghurt is made with coconut milk, so it is naturally dairy free and vegan-friendly.

Speaking of vegan-friendly, you MUST check out this delicious recipe for Vegan Peanut Butter Choc Overnight Oats by The FODMAP Friendly Vegan‘s Sharon Rosenrauch!

Vegan Peanut Butter Choc Overnight Oats

Makes: 2 small servings

Time taken: 5 minutes to combine, overnight to set

Nourishing Ingredients:

1/3 cup coconut yoghurt
½ cup wheat free rolled oats – FODMAP friendly serving
2/3 cup almond milk
1 tbsp ground flaxmeal
½ tsp pure vanilla extract
2 tbsp natural peanut butter
2 tbsp raw cacao powder
Pinch of salt
1 tbsp maple syrup (or stevia equivalent) – to desired level of sweetness
Optional toppings: desiccated coconut (max 1 tbsp), vegan chocolate chips, chia seeds, 1 tbsp peanut butter

To Create:

Blend all ingredients (except the oats) in a blender until smooth and creamy
Scoop the mixture out of the blender and combine with the oats in a bowl
Spoon the mixture into a jar with a tight fitting lid
Close the lid and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, but for best results overnight
Serve topped with your favourite toppings (I like vegan chocolate chips, desiccated coconut, extra peanut butter & chia seeds)!
