For me, herb butter is really a thing for BBQ’s. In the past, when I would have a BBQ with family or friends, I would already feel full after half an hour because I ate too many slices of baguette with herb butter. Preferably herb butter with a lot of garlic in it. Even though, garlic is a no go for most fodmappers, that doesn’t mean we have to pass on the herb butter. I have created an easy recipe for low FODMAP herb butter with 2 variation recipes! 

With this recipe, you can make your own herb butter quickly, so you don’t have to sit and watch while others enjoy their bread with herb butter. This herb butter is also great to put on meat or on steamed veggies. 

Basic recipe for low FODMAP herb butter

I made a basic low FODMAP herb butter with normal butter. Butter hardly contains any lactose and therefore, many people who follow the low FODMAP diet can tolerate it without issues. You can also make this basic recipe plant-based, by replacing the butter with a vegan low FODMAP spread. If you do that, this recipe is also suitable for people who are very sensitive to lactose, don’t tolerate cow milk or are eating vegan. 

Below you can find the basic recipe, scroll a bit further down for the two recipe variations.
