For many, there’s nothing more delicious than enjoying a mince pie during the festive season. You’ll find them all over supermarkets, in restaurants, and also in many homemade varieties.
Unfortunately, the typical mince pie recipe is not FODMAP-friendly. But don’t worry, we’ve adapted our recipe to make sure that you don’t have to miss out and you can still get to enjoy this festive treat!
Dried fruits are generally high in fructose and it’s recommended to avoid these if on a low FODMAP diet. Luckily for us, a small serving of dried cranberries is low in FODMAPs so we’ve mixed these with fresh clementines, walnuts, and festive spices to make the sweet mince pie filling that we all know and love.
