OATY BREAKFAST BUNS - GF, LOW FODMAP

Oaty breakfast bun with pecan

I follow a low fodmap diet because I have fibromyalgia so eating out is tricky, but eating at home is manageable. I did The Happy Pear's Happy Gut online cookery course last year and got some great new low fodmap recipes from it. This is one of my favourites.

I normally make these with blueberries but substituted grated carrot today for a change. I eat one for breakfast with an Alpro Coconut 'yogurt' and a sprinkle of mixed seeds.
