75+ of the Best Gluten-Free Snacks

If you’re following a gluten-free diet, chances are you often feel stuck for gluten-free snacks ideas. In this post, I’ll share 75+ gluten-free snack ideas with you to help you calm those cravings when a snack attack hits you. This post contains affiliate links. Please see my disclosures.

Grocery stores are exploding with tasty gluten-free snacks, ready to tempt the millions of people living with celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity.

Gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, barley and sometimes oats, can cause intestinal damage and widespread inflammation for those who must follow the diet for medically-necessary reasons.

Below, I share 75+ of the best gluten-free snacks. I only included brands that are labeled gluten free or are certified gluten free by a third party.

Before I share my list of gluten-free snack brands with you, I also want to remind you of a few things:

(1) Gluten Free Doesn’t Mean It’s Healthy: Just because a product is gluten free doesn’t mean it’s healthy. In fact, many gluten-free foods contain less nutrients and more fat and calories. Read 5 Dangers Associated with the Gluten-Free Diet to learn more.

(2) Read Labels Carefully: Some brands offer both gluten and gluten-free options. Look for clearly labeled gluten-free products or even better, look for products that are certified gluten free by a third-party certifying agency like the GFCO. To help you read labels more quickly, download the free Fig app on your phone and read my article, Learn How to Decode Food Labels.

(3) Focus on Naturally Gluten-Free Foods: When possible, eat snacks that are naturally gluten free and don’t come with a label. These are going to be the safest and often the most healthy gluten-free snacks around. Some whole, fresh and healthy gluten-free snack options include:

• Ants on a log (celery with peanut butter and raisins)
• Apple slices with peanut butter
• Avocados with lime and a sprinkle of sea salt
• Banana slices with peanut butter
• Berries, fresh
• Carrot sticks
• Cucumbers, sliced
• Eggs, hard boiled
• Energy bars, homemade
• Grapes
• Kale chips, homemade
• Kombucha (I like Health-Ade, Humm, and Brew Dr., or make your own kombucha at home)
• Melons, sliced
• Nuts (avoid bulk bins; read labels carefully; many Nuts.com nuts are certified gluten free)
• Rice cakes with peanut butter
• Smoothies
• String cheese

(4) Watch Your Budget: Gluten-free snacks are expensive and you often get less product for more money in the end. Naturally gluten-free foods will always be cheaper. Also, shop for gluten-free snacks are Costco, Walmart, Trader Joe’s and/or Aldis to save a little money.
