Notes

* Low FODMAP diet: According to Monash University we can eat up to 3,53oz | 100g of unripe bananas (without black spots on the skin). Ripe bananas have a high fructan content, reducing the allowed quantity to 1,98oz | 35g. Therefore, we can then eat up to 1/3 of the banana bread per meal (approximately 4 slices).
