If so—you’re not alone. And you’re exactly who I created The PlantWhys Collective for.

2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoon cinnamon

*Don’t forget to preload on vegetables before you eat!
*FODMAP Swaps: keep any oat or soy milk used to under ½ cup; choose maple syrup or granulated sugar over honey
*Nut-Free: Omit pecans or swap in pumpkin seeds
