Note
Moderate Amines, Low Salicylates, Low Glutamates
A note on yogurt: "Fresh yogurt, natural, plain or vanilla" is listed in the 2011 version of the RPAH Elimination Diet Handbook as low chemical. The previous 2009 version listed "Yogurt" as moderate in Amines. The definition of "fresh yogurt" in the 2011 version is not clear. All recipes on this site use the moderate amines rating for yogurt. If you are using fresh yogurt then the amine level of that ingredient will be low. There may, however, be other amine ingredients in the recipe.
Variations:
- For a less sweet and sugary version, use oat milk instead of pear juice.
- Use fresh fruit instead of dried, such as 1 peeled and finely chopped pear (low chemical) or 1 peeled and grated apple (moderate salicylates).
- Add a handful of finely chopped cashews (low chemical) or almonds (high salicylates and amines) or a couple of table spoons of almond meal (high salicylates and amines).
- Using oat milk or pear juice and soy yogurt will make this recipe dairy free.
