Coconut flour

High FODMAP (Avoid)High across several FODMAP groups

Is coconut flour low FODMAP?

Coconut flour is high FODMAP and best avoided during the elimination phase.

Coconut flour tested high across several FODMAP groups at a baking portion, so it is one to save for reintroduction. Rice, corn, buckwheat, or a measured amount of almond flour are the low-FODMAP baking swaps.

FODMAP subgroups to watch

Coconut flour contains excess fructose, sorbitol, fructans, GOS that can drive SIBO symptoms.
