Low-FODMAP & Gluten-free Cheddar Cheese Muffins are moist, sweet, & savory. Great all year, but perfect for holidays!

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 cups low-FODMAP, gluten-free flour*
  • 2/3 cup sugar*
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum *if not added to your flour choice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 7 tablespoons low-FODMAP milk (almond milk or lactose-free)*
  • 1/2 cup canola oil (or other neutral oil)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 & 1/2 cups grated or shredded sharp cheddar cheese, plus extra for sprinkling*

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F
  • Grease muffin tin with vegetable shortening or use muffin cups
  • Mix low-FODMAP flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and xanthan gum (if using) in large bowl
  • In another medium bowl or large measuring cup, mix 7 tablespoons low-FODMAP milk (1/2 cup minus one tablespoon), and 1/2 cup oil
  • Add eggs to milk/oil mixture and beat together
  • Place the liquids into the flour mixture and stir until just combined
  • Fold in grated cheese
  • Scoop muffin batter into 12 cups
  • Sprinkle more cheese on the tops
  • Bake about 20-25 minutes, until a tester comes out clean and the tops are light golden
  • Allow to sit about 5 minutes then transfer to a rack to cool

Notes

  • Although this recipe has not been lab tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients (using available FODMAP data at time of posting)
  • I use Authentic Foods GF Classical Blend- the results are so consistent!  Check out my low-FODMAP Bake off blog to see why
  • These do make a ‘sweet’ muffin.  For a savory take, reduce sugar
