This low-FODMAP Maple Turkey Breast is a staple in our house. It is easy to prepare, and a fantastic hearty, healthy low-FODMAP supper. I love this low-FODMAP maple turkey breast in a sandwich, with low-FODMAP mashed potatoes or low-FODMAP glazed carrots!
This low-FODMAP maple turkey is guaranteed to be a family favorite for you too, on the holidays or all-year round. Sometimes you just want the best part of the turkey, without the whole bird!

Ingredients
- 1 boneless turkey breast, about 2 kg or 4.5 lbs (can also use turkey ball; dark meat or combination, skinless or skin on)
- 2 TB soy sauce (gluten-free if necessary)
- 4 TB maple syrup
- 2 tsp minced fresh ginger
- 1/2 tsp each of salt, freshly ground pepper & paprika, or to taste

Directions
- Rinse the turkey and pat dry

- In a separate bowl, combine the soy sauce, maple syrup and ginger, stir to combine
- Drizzle the sauce over the turkey breast including under the skin (if your turkey has its skin on)

Very good
Love this simple and delicious turkey meal. It’s great for leftover lunch too!
Sadie,
Super to hear from you! Thanks for your kind comments and review!
Can you use bone broth for the water to give it more flavor and can I use anything other than paprika? I can’t have it on my diet. Thank you!! Looking forward to making this!
Hi Caitlin,
Sure bone broth would be great- we suggest a low-FODMAP bone broth recipe such as ours. Also skipping the paprika should be just fine. Good luck!
