French toast

High FODMAP (Avoid)Wheat bread soaked in egg and milk custard

Is french toast low FODMAP?

French toast is high FODMAP and best avoided during the elimination phase.

Standard French toast stacks wheat bread (fructans) with a cow-milk custard (lactose), and syrup can add fructose. A safer build uses genuine sourdough or gluten-free bread soaked in lactose-free milk and egg, topped with pure maple syrup.

FODMAP subgroups to watch
