Over the last 18 years, I’ve been sharing gluten free dessert recipes, and today I’m rounding up 30 reader favorites. If you’re dealing with thyroid disease and need to eat gluten free, these desserts let you enjoy the classics without the gluten, plus you won’t find the usual processed ingredients or preservatives.
I’m not going to call these “healthy”, because dessert is still dessert. But they are definitely healthy(ish), and they’re a fun way to keep treats on the menu while you’re keeping gluten out. You’ll find everything from rich chocolate desserts to lighter fruit based options, plus a few make ahead recipes for the days you want something sweet without extra effort.
30 Gluten Free Dessert Recipes that Everyone Loves
If you’ve been missing desserts since going gluten free, this list is for you. Pick one recipe to start with, then keep a few favorites on repeat so dessert feels easy again. And if you’re dealing with thyroid disease, taking gluten off the table can be a big step, but you still get to enjoy something sweet that doesn’t leave you feeling wrecked afterward.
