Sorghum Flour and the low FODMAP diet
Sorghum flour is finely milled dried sorghum grain used for baking and thickening. It remains naturally low FODMAP and serves as gentle starch alternative to wheat during preparation. Combining with other gluten-free flours improves structural integrity in baked goods without adding triggers. Its mild flavor preserves ingredient balance while preventing dense results. Measuring accurately ensures consistent baking outcomes and predictable digestion.

What can change the result?
Sorghum processing eliminates gluten entirely while preserving mild starch structures that benefit digestion during sensitive periods. Combining with tapioca starch improves elasticity and reduces overall density in final products that some find heavy. Hydrating batters thoroughly allows starch granules to swell properly, improving final digestibility for sensitive stomachs. Freezing unused portions preserves quality while preventing insect infestation during extended pantry storage.
