What is rhubarb? And is it safe for a low-FODMAP diet? According to the Rhubarb Compendium, it is a vegetable, although many people mistakenly think rhubarb is a fruit. While a good source of fiber, it is very low in sugar. Hence the very tart taste. According to the Monash App, rhubarb is a low-FODMAP food. It’s definitely worth trying this tart treat.


I’ve always been a big fan of rhubarb. My mom used to grow it her garden when I was little. Her favorite recipe to make with rhubarb was rhubarb meringue pie, which was absolutely delicious. My personal favorite rhubarb desserts are crisps and crumb pies. Crisps are so easy to make, so that’s what I usually turn to when I find a nice bunch of rhubarb. I’m also not a very good pie maker as crusts vex me, so a crisp it usually is. This year I decided to try making a low-FODMAP version of a rhubarb crisp after finding some rhubarb at the St. Joseph, Minnesota Farmer’s Market.

Low FODMAP Rhubarb Crisp

It was not very difficult to make rhubarb crisp low-FODMAP. Rhubarb and sugar are both low-FODMAP (in 1 cup and 1/4 cup serving sizes, respectively). The main issue is flour, but that is easily replaced with my gluten-free flour blend. I’ve had quite a few failures in the kitchen lately, but I’m happy to say that this recipe for Low FODMAP Rhubarb Crisp is a winner!

  2. Is gluten-free baking flour usable instead of your white rice flour blend? Or will the flour not be the same, consistency-wise?

     
  3. Yes, I think any gluten-free flour blend would work in this recipe.

     
  4. Made this today. Very good!
