Ingredients
  

  • 40 g certified gluten-free rolled oats (Monash green up to 52g, do NOT exceed)
  • ½ cup lactose-free milk or unsweetened almond milk (Monash safe, NOT regular cow's milk)
  • 31 g fresh or frozen blueberries ¼ cup (Monash green up to 125g)
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract (Monash safe)
  • 2 tsp pure maple syrup (Monash safe, NOT honey)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ½ tbsp unsalted butter, optional (virtually lactose-free, Monash safe)

Instructions
 

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the certified GF oats, lactose-free milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well. FODMAP tip: weigh oats to exactly 40g, do not eyeball. Measuring cups can vary by 10-15g depending on packing.
  • Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir. Repeat in 30-second intervals until oats are almost tender, about 1 min 30 sec total. Every microwave varies; adjust ±30 sec for your appliance.
  • Add blueberries on top (fresh or frozen). Microwave 30 more seconds until blueberries are warm and oats are fully cooked. FODMAP tip: add blueberries AFTER initial cooking, adding them at the start makes them mushy, and they lose their burst.
  • Remove the bowl carefully; it will be hot. Stir in butter if using. Let cool 1 full minute before eating. This improves texture and prevents scalding. Enjoy immediately or store covered in the fridge up to 3 days.
