Servings 1 cup

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk (lactose-free cows milk or soy protein soy milk)
  • 2 tsp white sugar
  • 2 tsp cocoa powder

Instructions
 

  • Pour 2 tablespoons of the milk into a saucepan. Heat on low and mix in sugar and cocoa. Stir until there are no lumps of cocoa.
  • Pour in the rest of the milk. Heat on medium-low until the hot chocolate is heated to your preferred temperature. Pour into a mug and enjoy!

Notes

  • There are multiple milk options. I prefer lactose-free cows milk. If you use soy milk, make sure to use one made with soy protein, not soy beans, to keep the FODMAPs low.  Almond milk is another option. Coconut milk is only low FODMAP at 1/2 cup.
  • Cocoa powder is only low FODMAP at 2 heaped teaspoons per serving.
  • If you use an artificial sweetener instead of sugar, make sure to check the ingredients lists, since some have added sugar alcohols (in particular some stevia blends). It's best to consume artificial sweeteners in moderation, even if they are low FODMAP.
