Who doesn’t like Oreos? They are so addictive! In addition, they are vegan! Oreos are not very healthy and you can’t eat them if you are a celiac, but these homemade Oreos are gluten and dairy-free. You should also try them without the filling, they’re so amazing!
As you can see, these cookies aren’t as dark as traditional Oreos, this is because we haven’t added as much c0coa powder as other recipes. If you add more cocoa, you’ll probably need to add more sugar.
We’ve used coconut cream with vanilla extract to make the filling. We are in love with coconut cream, because we use it instead of whipped cream in many recipes, such us this gorgeous crepe cake. You should be patient with this cookie dough because it’s made with rice flour, so it’s more difficult to handle, but it’s totally worth it!

These homemade Oreos with coconut whipped cream are healthier and also gluten-free!
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup rice flour (200 grams)
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (20 grams)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (50 grams)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (50 grams)
- 3 tablespoons soy milk
- 3 tablespoons agave nectar
- 3,5 oz coconut cream (100 grams)
Instructions
- Combine dry ingredients (rice flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, salt and baking soda) and stir.
- In a different bowl, combine all liquid ingredients (1 teaspoon vanilla extract, olive oil, milk and agave) and stir very well.
- Mix wet into dry to form the dough. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 340º F or 170º C.
- Knead the dough with a rolling pin and cut flat circles using a circle cutter or a glass.

Hello! These look lovely! Do you think xylitol could be used to replace brown sugar? Many thanks.
Hi Dorota! Thanks a lot 🙂 I’ve never used it, so I can’t help you, sorry!
Can I use almond milk instead of soy? 🙂
Hi Keziah! You can use any plant milk 😀
As of April, 2015, according to an e-mail from the company which produces Oreos, the sugar used is sometimes filtered using bone char and the company does not know whether or not any given batch of sugar used has been filtered in such fashion. So, the answer to whether or not Oreos are vegan actually depends on the batch of sugar used. However, since switching the filtering material is a relatively cheap process, if Vegans were to contact every sugar company, the overwhelming majority would probably either already have switched or readily do so. So, Vegans need to start contacting sugar companies.
Hi Brian! Thanks a lot for your comment 🙂 It depends on the country, here in Spain they don’t use that kind of sugar 🙂
Can I substitute the rice flour with coconut flour? I only have regular wheat flour, coconut flour, and tapioca starch
Hi Sarah! I’ve never used coconut flour, so I can’t help you. The regular wheat flour will work, but maybe you’ll need to add more or less 🙂
Can I use rice milk instead of soy milk? Granddaughter is allergic to soy.
Hi Susan! You can use any kind of milk you want 🙂
This will never stick together only with rice flour. I suggest using half rice flour and half corn starch (that is gluten free and helps a lot making the dough stick together)
Hi Federica! Thanks a lot for the idea 😀
Hi,
Can you replace the agave with maple syrup or something else?
Thanks,
Hamel
Hi Hamel! Of course! You can use any sweetener you like 🙂
Our family goes camping every fall – and for 30+ years we have taken Oreos! I’ve been so ‘bummed’ that I could not enjoy with the rest of the gang. (We actually toast each other when we first arrive at the camp site with an Oreo and that gesture marks the beginning of the camping trip, lol) So…. I can’t wait to try these and feel a part of the group again!
Thank you SO much!
Hi Joy! I hope you like these cookies! They don’t taste exactly like Oreos, but they taste amazing, I love them even more and they are so much healthier!
Love this!! I wanted to make an oreo milkshake but with *healthy* oreos, now I can!! 🙂
★★★★★
Hi Celine!!! These Oreo cookies are amazing!!! Enjoy the milkshake 😉
love your site. 🙂 can’t wait to try these!
Thanks a lot!! 😀
Uggghh, I got ALL excited, Then realized it has coconut, & I cannot have coconut!
Any ideas? I can have dairy, though.
Thank you.
BTW, I used to LOVE OREOs, especially Golden Oreos, BGF
(BeforeGlutenFree! lol)
You can use some plant based whipped cream, or if you consume dairy products, you can also use whipped cream 🙂
These look so yummy! I have been missing oreos. Do you think I could substitute a gluten free flour mix for the rice flour? If I did, would I need to make any adjustments to the recipe?
Of course you can! But maybe you should add more or less milk 😉
they look amazing! I’ve never actually eaten an Oreo. It seems I’m the only one! I think I should try these just so I can see what all the fuss is about!
If you wanna try oreos, this recipe is a good choice!!! 😉
G’day! I LOVE Oreos and how healthy is your GF recipe!
Cheers! Joanne
Thank you!!!! 🙂
Fantastic! And beautiful photography too!
Thank you so much!!!! 🙂
