Print

While Life and Thymez certainly caters (pun intended) to those who follow a Low-FODMAP diet, it’s very obvious if you browse the recipes that they’re meant to be enjoyed by everyone. NS low-FODMAP recipes, while really beneficial for those with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and other tummy issues, doesn’t have to be eaten exclusively by those who follow a low-FODMAP diet. That’s my point. So …. read on and make these bad boys! Enjoy.

Further Food Commentary:

These Homemade Potato Buns are simply potatoes, eggs, and butter and are appropriate for those following a gluten-free or low-FODMAP diet. The potatoes contribute potassium which helps to maintain fluid and electrolyte balance inside the body. Compared to many store-bought breads, these homemade buns have a lower sodium content and have no added sugars giving you even more reason to give this easy recipe a try.

    In process of making these. They are in oven right now. The consistency didn’t looked right so I was double checking the recipe as I was baking them. The consistency I have didn’t require using my hands to form the dough but simply a spoon which adds up to mashed potatoes that I’m making with eggs. Also, the recipe doesn’t stipulate how many buns this makes. I cut in half as it says 20 servings. I’m thinking this may have needed at least some kind of leavening whether it be baking soda or baking powder but they are already in oven so hoping they surprise me. Many people saying it needs a flour which I agree . However this would be potato bread. Not all GF flours are low FODMAP. Xanthan gum tends to bother most with a true food intolerance with FODMAPs. When replacing gluten, you need to make sure it has 3 quality; protein, starch, and binder. It has the starch from the potatoes, binder is the eggs. It’s just missing a protein flour by guessing. Millet, brown rice, almond, and sorghum are high protein flours. I am thinking next time I’ll try the millet flour since it low FODMAP and possibly my own baking powder without the corn. But I think this is a simple starter lore FODMAP recipe that can tweaked. Who knows, it may surprise me after baking. Fingers crossed🤞

    This recipe does not match the picture! Like some of the others have commented, the recipe is definitely missing some key ingredients, such as gf flour, xanthan gum, and some sort of leavening agent. The photo looks like yeasted dinner rolls, but the recipe just sounds like fancy mashed potatoes.

    *I’m Crying!* 🙂 I have to eat gf. I miss Wendy’s jr bacon chz burgers w/a potato roll. I’m also a professional chef. This recipe is definitely missing flour (albeit gf) probably a baking soda/ powder combo & usually a lil xantum gum for structure & stability. As soon as I read the recipe steps I was like, “that can’t be right. No way they come out like the picture” 🙂 Thank you all for your comments. Information is always helpful!

    Wish I’d have read the comments. It’s basically mashed potato with a ton of extra steps. Totally disappointed. Won’t make again. It seems like there is a key ingredient missing…

    Like others who commented, I wonder if an ingredient, such as yeast or baking powder, is missing.
    The “rolls” I made from this recipe are basically baked mashed potatoes with a nice golden top.

    They were very good and everyone loved them but it’s a lot of work for something that turns out pretty much like mash potatoes.
