I absolutely love easy oatmeal recipes – they are an easy, healthy breakfast. This creamy Snickers-style low-FODMAP oatmeal is made with gluten-free oatmeal, a pinch of cinnamon, almond milk (or oat milk), and sweetened with coconut sugar and maple syrup. Stovetop in a pan, this nutritious breakfast oatmeal is ready in just 15 minutes.
after me extract a tooth, I got really low FODMAP oatmeal because it’s one of the few mushy things that are easy to chew. I’ve made a lot of variations, but my go-to since then has been this Snickers-style oatmeal. Saying cinnamon oatmeal is basically fun and fantasy. Just in place of the brown sugar, a dash of granulated coconut sugar gives it a classic Christmas cookie coating—but you can enjoy it year-round.
Shockingly, there are no oatmeal recipes in it my recipe. It’s silly because it’s such a simple low FODMAP breakfast option. Even traditional sweeteners are low in FODMAP.
When it comes to oatmeal, I think there are two camps: the maple syrup brigade and the brown sugar brigade. Growing up, I firmly belonged to the latter. I love the way the sugar melts on a pile of hot oatmeal, but if you bite into it just right, you still get a hint of crunchy crumbs.
I’m more of a maple girl in my adult life because I don’t bake with traditional sugar anymore. Somehow, being a great thinker, I didn’t realize until recently that coconut sugar could be the best of both worlds.
What makes this low FODMAP oatmeal fast and ahead?
Make These Oatmeal Recipes Ahead Low FODMAP Overnight Oats or Low FODMAP Baked Steel Cut Oats It seems to be all the rage these days. But I think people forget that regular batches of oatmeal can be prepared quickly the same day, or made in large batches and refrigerated to reheat later. When you’re making 15-minute stovetop oatmeal with regular oatmeal, the trick is to add a little extra liquid, or just transfer from the pan to an airtight container while it’s still a little runny. Then scoop it out of the container into a bowl and reheat it within a week.
What makes this oatmeal low FODMAP?
Oats are naturally gluten-free and low in FODMAP, so they’re a great breakfast option. And since a low-FODMAP diet can make things a little boring, you have plenty of flavor options to change them up.If you don’t like the snickerdoodle variation, you can try this Golden Milk Oatmeal Recipe.
The only thing to keep in mind to keep your oatmeal low FODMAP is to use plant-based milks such as almonds, hemp, or oats. Coconut milk has a low FODMAP of only 1/4 cup. Beware of high-FODMAP nut milks like cashews and pistachios.
The second is to use a low-FODMAP sweetener, such as maple syrup or coconut sugar. Honey and agave are not good choices for low-FODMAP breakfast recipes.
If cinnamon and coconut sugar are too easy for you, feel free to get creative with add-ons. I like a little chia seeds, sliced almonds, walnuts or hemp seeds. Some strawberry, blueberry or raspberry slices are also good in summer. You can also cut an unripe banana year-round. It tastes especially good with cinnamon sugar.
That said, if your FODMAP isn’t low, you can add a few other things, including cashew milk, as it’s extra creamy. You can even make an apple cinnamon version of this snickerdoodle oatmeal. Just sauté a peeled diced apple in a little coconut oil or butter before adding the liquid.
If the stovetop method is not your thing, you can also check out my Fengjia Low FODMAP Overnight Oatmeal or my banana bread Low FODMAP Steel Cut Oats in the oven. Both are great for large batches (this oatmeal serves 4 people) and to share with the family.

Best 15 Minute Low FODMAP Oatmeal
This creamy low-FODMAP oatmeal is made with gluten-free oatmeal, a pinch of cinnamon, almond milk (or oat milk), and sweetened with coconut sugar and maple syrup. Made stovetop in a pan, this nutritious breakfast oatmeal is ready in just 15 minutes.
The ingredients and look of this cinnamon oatmeal recipe come from the classic snickerdoodle cookie, which is my year-round favorite. This recipe makes 4 servings for your family, or you can make it a week ahead. If doing the latter, leave a little extra liquid in the pan before transferring to an airtight container.

-
In a medium saucepan, combine nut milk, maple syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Bring to a simmer, stirring until everything is well combined. Be careful not to boil the pot! Once bubbles form, add oats and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and the liquid is absorbed, about 10 to 15 minutes. If you make it ahead of time, let it loose a bit.
-
Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine remaining ¼ teaspoon cinnamon with coconut sugar.
-
Scoop the oatmeal into a bowl and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top. Or store the two elements separately and assemble to order throughout the week.
