I have a major sweet tooth and finding substitutions that are still satisfying but also considered FODMAP diet desserts has been a challenge. Unfortunately, even the lactose-free ice creams sold at grocery stores can have corn syrup, gums, and other ingredients that are high in FODMAPs. Plus some of those small pints can be so expensive. This recipe is double the quantity and quality of a store-bought purchase (if I do say so myself!).
This recipe calls for coconut milk which is my new obsession. Did you know there are so many nutritional benefits of consuming coconut milk?
- Lower cholesterol levels & improves blood pressure
- Builds muscle & helps lose fat
- Improves digestion & relieves constipation
- Prevents fatigue
