10 Best Low FODMAP Cookbooks UK 2023 | Alana Scott, Audrey Inouye and More

One of the best things we love about this book is the layout, but it's not all about appearances. From the brains behind the food blog A Little Bit Yummy, this guide is written by a real-life Coeliac and IBS sufferer. Alongside Alana Scott's quirky and relatable writing is the in-depth medical expertise of certified, practising dietitian Joanna Baker.

Among the recipes, you'll find sweet orange chicken wings and berry pavlova, so even if you're gluten-free and sticking to low-FODMAP cooking, you can enjoy the most delectable dinners and desserts!

This book is written by registered dietitian Audrey Inouye, who specialises in IBS, so if you're a sufferer, this is your girl! She has included 100 tempting yet manageable recipes for breakfast bowls, superfood smoothies, meaty and meat-free mains and much more!

Every recipe has a photo, so you know more or less what you're aiming for. We also love the included plan element, which provides a very structured approach that feels safe and reassuring rather than limiting. 

Lucy Whigham's low-FODMAP recipe book is a big UK favourite with Coeliacs, IBS sufferers, and those with leaky gut and gastritis. It includes 125 brilliant recipes made with affordable, accessible ingredients that are perfect for experimenting with an elimination diet.

We love the inclusion of sweet treats and moreish bakes - who says just because your gut is sensitive, you should miss out on Bake Off worthy bites? The thirty-day meal plan helps you feel organised, structured and safe, and almost all the recipes have photos.

While this low-FODMAP cookbook has just 80 recipes, we actually consider this a benefit for anyone at the start of their gut-healing journey. The instructions are clear, and the photos get your mouth simply salivating!

While the number of recipes is small, the variety is impressive, ranging from casseroles to salads to biscuits. Dr Sue Shepherd is an accredited dietitian and nutritionist, while Dr Peter Gibson specialises in low-FODMAP nutrition.

From the Brighton-based writer behind the low-FODMAP food blog, She Can't Eat What? comes this vibrant cookbook, which aims to prove that eating a limited range of ingredients needn't restrict the joy we find in cooking and eating. 

The book is approved by the FODMAP Friendly assessment body, which is a globally recognised certification trademark that guarantees the recipes would be labelled low-FODMAP after laboratory testing. The layout is beautiful and accessible, with dreamy photos of every dish.

This book is a wonderful introduction to the world of low-FODMAP cooking. Instead of presenting you with a huge recipe collection, it encourages you to carefully experiment over a few months and eliminate the foods that affect your guts and stomach. 

The chapters include weight-gain ideas, advice on dining out, vegan alternatives and recipes you can throw together quickly. Patsy Castsos has a Masters in science and is a registered dietitian as well as having nutritionist training.

The best bit about this book is the gigantic range of 300 recipes! This is a fantastic choice for any hungry reader who already knows the ins and outs of their sensitive gut and is now looking to get adventurous in the kitchen. Disappointingly, not all the dishes have photos.

You'll find healing recipes such as cranberry and almond granola, grilled swordfish with pineapple salsa and pumpkin-spiced cupcakes! Colleen Francioli is a nutritional consultant, meaning she doesn't have the medical background of a dietitian, so make sure you back up her gut knowledge with your own research.

Hooray - a user-friendly low-FODMAP cookbook designed to help us keep our gut calm and beat bloating once and for all! As well as containing more than 50 nourishing recipes, this book also includes a grocery list and menu plan, making putting the diet into practice easy. 

Danielle Capalino encourages readers to carefully eliminate and reintroduce different foods to identify a diet tailored to their individual sensitivities. The low recipe count is about the only drawback of this one that we can find!

Keen to stick to a plant-based diet but you've also been recently diagnosed with Coeliac disease, IBS or leaky gut? It's a tough challenge trying to align these two diets, but never fear! This cookbook is packed with 70 tasty recipes that fit both a low-FODMAP and cruelty-free, vegan diet. 

This book has countless gushing reviews from low-FODMAP bloggers living a vegan lifestyle. The recipes balance vital carbs, protein, vitamins and plant fats to create a well-rounded menu as filling as it is delicious. The only downside is that it contains fewer recipes than some of our other picks, hence why it's a little further down on our list.

This is a brilliant, affordable and comprehensive cookbook for those recently diagnosed with gut issues. The 80 recipes are simple and accessible, covering a variety of breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks.

Mollie Tunitsky is a chef, baker, and food blogger who lives with IBS. While she isn't officially qualified, she has lived the irritable bowel syndrome lifestyle and knows first-hand how to deal with it most effectively. While this is an excellent book for beginners, it might not inspire those looking to expand their recipe repertoire.
