Whether you or someone you know has celiac disease, or you’ve run out of flour and don’t feel like heading to the store, it’s both possible AND easy to make delicious flourless dessert recipes. 

They are fuss-free, use wholesome and easy-to-find ingredients (seriously), and are naturally richer in flavor.

I’ve included over 25 of my best tried and true flourless desserts that will have you reaching for thirds. They are THAT good.

Flourless chocolate desserts

  • Flourless brownies. Crinkly on top and gooey in the center, these one-bowl brownies are way better than anything you’d get out of a box. 
  • Flourless muffins. Unfussy, uncomplicated, and made without gluten, refined sugar, or oil. They’re sweetened with bananas and turn out incredibly moist. 
  • Protein brownies. Fudgy, rich, and packed with 6 grams of protein per brownie. 
  • Pot de creme. AKA the ultimate flour-free dessert. It’s basically the best chocolate pudding you’ve ever had, topped with whipped cream. 
  • Avocado chocolate mousse. You’d never guess what you can make with soft avocados and cocoa powder!

Flourless breads, blondies, and bars

  • Flourless banana bread. A guilt-free, naturally-sweetened banana bread recipe made with simple ingredients and a touch of (optional) sugar. 
  • Apple pie blondies. I make these blondies year-round or whenever I happen to be craving apple pie. 
  • Oatmeal breakfast bars. Just oats, peanut butter, and bananas are all you’ll need to make the breakfast of champions. 
  • Sweet potato blondies. Trust me, everyone will ask you what your secret ingredient is!
  • Strawberry oatmeal bars. Refreshing, satisfying, and perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack.

Flourless cakes

  • Flourless chocolate cake. My family’s favorite flourless chocolate cake. All that’s missing is some vanilla ice cream and fresh raspberries.
  • Breakfast cake. A light and fluffy cinnamon-spiced cake layered with cream cheese frosting. 
  • Lemon mug cake. Full of refreshing lemon flavor and made in under a minute. 
  • Almond flour cake. Delicately flavored and dusted with powdered sugar, this is one of my favorite naturally gluten-free cake recipes. 
  • Orange cake. A delicate treat bursting with vibrant orange flavor that’s perfectly balanced by the subtle nuttiness of the almond flour.

No-bake flourless desserts

  • Nutella fudge. Easy 2-ingredient fudge that’ll change the way you think of Nutella. 
  • No bake Oreo cheesecake. A light and fluffy Oreo cheesecake filling atop a buttery chocolate crust.
  • Chocolate coconut balls. If you love almond joys or bounty bars, you’re going to adore these chocolate coconut balls.
