The story of these low FODMAP chocolate chip cookies begins with a quest for the perfect cookie. I wanted a cookie that was chewy, flavorful, and easy to make. But I also wanted a cookie that was low in FODMAPs, so that people with digestive issues could enjoy it. FODMAPs are a group of carbohydrates that can cause digestive problems for some people. They're found in many common foods, including wheat, dairy, and onions. I started by experimenting with different gluten-free flour blends. I wanted to find a blend that would give me the chewy texture I was looking for. After a few tries, I settled on a blend of almond flour, tapioca flour, and potato starch. This blend gave me the perfect texture, and it was also low in FODMAPs. Next, I turned my attention to the chocolate chips. I wanted to find a chocolate chip that was low in FODMAPs and still had a good flavor. After some research, I found a brand of chocolate chips that met my criteria. Now that I had my flour blend and chocolate chips, it was time to perfect the recipe. I wanted a cookie that was flavorful, but not too sweet. I also wanted a cookie that was easy to make. After a few more tries, I finally came up with the perfect recipe. These low FODMAP chocolate chip cookies are chewy, flavorful, and easy to make. They're the perfect treat for anyone with dietary restrictions.
