Creamy rich and peanut-ty buttercream frosting. Perfect for any low-FODMAP cake or brownie. Gluten-free and vegan.
One of the best frosting recipes- low-FODMAP Peanut Butter Buttercream. It is rich, creamy, smooth and so delicious.
I love my low-FODMAP Peanut Butter Buttercream as a dip for dark chocolate squares (tastes just like a peanut butter cup) or as middle layer for a low-FODMAP Whoopie Pie.
But the best is with my low-FODMAP Banana Layer Cake. So good.

Low-FODMAP Peanut Butter Buttercream Frosting; Gluten-free, Vegan
Although this recipe has not been lab tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients using FODMAP data at time of posting
Serves enough for a 2 layer cake (24 serves)
Prep time: 10 min
Ingredients
- 1 cup low-FODMAP Vegan Spread, such as Earth Balance
- Can also use butter for non-vegan version
- 1 heaped cup natural peanut butter (I prefer salted, add a pinch of salt to frosting if you use unsalted)
- 4 cups confectioner’s or powdered sugar (vegan certified, if necessary)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 tablespoons low-FODMAP milk (such as almond milk, or canned coconut cream, lactose-free milk for non-vegans)
Directions
- Mix the low-FODMAP spread and peanut butter together until fully combined in bowl of electric mixer
- Add the sugar slowly, then vanilla
- Careful as it can be quite messy 😉
- As needed add low-FODMAP milk or cream until desired consistency is reached
- If you plan to pipe your frosting you will want it thicker than if you plan to spread it
- These taste sensational!
