In this post, I’ll show you how to make a homemade gluten-free graham cracker crust with only three simple ingredients. I’ll also share which gluten-free graham crackers work best in this recipe. This post contains affiliate links. Please see my disclosures. Today I’m going to show you how to make a homemade gluten-free graham cracker crust. But before I do, I want to share a few interesting tidbits with you. First, in researching this article, I learned that graham flour is a coarse whole wheat flour. It’s not sifted when milled, and the flour uses the germ and bran of the wheat. Of course, those on a gluten-free diet cannot eat gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye and sometimes oats. This makes it impossible for a person with celiac disease and gluten intolerance to enjoy graham crackers, much less a graham cracker pie crust. The good news is that gluten-free graham crackers do exist and are made without wheat-laden graham flour, and instead are made from a combination of flours, starches, sugars, and binders, depending on which brand you buy. These ingredients mimic the taste and texture of graham cracker cookies, and you hardly taste a difference. There are two gluten-free graham cracker brands found most widely at grocery stores in the U.S. Both brands are certified gluten free. Pamela’s Honey GrahamsFirst is Pamela’s Honey Grahams. These crackers most resemble the look, texture and taste of traditional graham crackers and they’re my prefered graham cracker brand. Pamela’s Honey Grahams are made with butter, brown sugar, brown rice flour, sorghum flour, white rice flour, tapioca starch, gluten-free oat bran, molasses, honey, baking soda, sea salt, baking powder, potato starch, xanthan gum and cinnamon. If you cannot eat dairy products, or you experience a cross reactivity to oats, you should avoid Pamela’s Honey Grahams. Pamela’s Honey Grahams are labeled Kosher (dairy). I also tested Pamela’s Honey Grahams for hidden gluten using my Nima Sensor. Nima is a portable gluten-detecting device. If Nima doesn’t find gluten, it displays a smiley face, as seen below. Schar HoneygramsAnother gluten-free graham cracker option that is widely available is from the brand, Schar, the leading gluten-free brand found throughout Europe and the U.S. Schar Honeygrams don’t have the best texture and are a bit dry and crumbly. Pamela’s has Schar beat on taste and texture, hands down. However, if you’re looking for a dairy-free, gluten-free and oat-free graham cracker option, Schar is your brand. Schar Honeygrams are made from cornstarch, brown sugar, corn flour, palm fat, soy flour, soy bran, honey, modified tapioca starch, ammonium bicarbonate, baking soda, salt, and caramelized sugar. Other GF Graham Cracker BrandsWhile not as widely available, Nairn’s makes a gluten-free oat graham cracker. It’s made with gluten-free whole grain oats (72%), sustainable palm oil, brown sugar, golden syrup, tapioca starch, raising agent (sodium bicarbonate), and sea salt. Kinnikinnick also makes a gluten-free, vegan and kosher graham cracker. It’s made with pea starch, non-hydrogenated shortening (palm oil), brown rice flour, potato starch, brown sugar, sweet rice flour, tapioca starch, water, cane sugar, tapioca syrup, rice bran, molasses, salt, sodium bicarbonate, pea protein, natural flavor, pea fiber, inulin, sunflower lecithin, monocalcium phosphate, modified cellulose, and guar gum. If you can’t find gluten-free graham crackers anywhere, and you don’t want to order them online, you could also use plain gluten-free cookies, Glutino gluten-free animal crackers, or gluten-free digestive biscuits. One of my readers told me she also uses gluten-free ginger cookies from Trader Joe’s. Store-Bought Gluten-Free Graham Cracker CrustNext, I’m going to show you how easy it is to make your own graham cracker crust from scratch; after all, homemade tastes best. That said, if you’re in a pinch, or just want to save time, I highly recommend buying a ready-made gluten-free graham cracker crust from Mi-Del. You can find Mi-Del crusts at both Safeway/Albertsons and Walmart stores. Mi-Del graham cracker crusts are also labeled vegan, and they’re made from cane sugar, rice flour, palm oil, water, tapioca starch, natural flavors, baking soda, salt, modified cellulose, and guar gum. They’re certified gluten free, Non-GMO Verified, and Kosher (pareve). I’ve been buying Mi-Del Graham Style pie crusts for years because my mom loves frozen yogurt pies. I fill the crust with her favorite frozen yogurt and freeze it. She loves it. I find the crust crumbles (a lot), so it’s better to simply pour the softened ice cream on the crust vs. trying to spread solid ice cream on it. The spreading will catch the crust and make it crumble. Homemade Gluten-Free Graham Cracker CrustIf you can’t find the Mi-Del graham cracker crust near you, or you want a better tasting graham cracker crust made from scratch, you’ll need to gather the following three ingredients:
Because I prefer the taste of Pamela’s Honey Grahams, I use them, but you could also use 200 grams of Schar Honeygrams or another brand of graham crackers. You can use gluten-free cookies, gluten-free animal crackers, or digestive biscuits as well. I used my food processor to crush the crackers into fine crumbly bits, then combined the crushed crackers with melted butter and granulated sugar. I then pressed the ingredients into a 9″ pie pan, first using my hands, then using the back of a measuring cup. You’ll want to pack the bottom and sides in tightly, but be gentle because the crust is crumbly and fragile. Refrigerate the pie crust for at least 1 hour so it will stiffen and firm up. You can also make the crust ahead of time and freeze it for up to three months. I recommend buying disposable metal pie pans if you’re going to freeze it. Once refrigerated, you can then add ice cream, frozen yogurt, pudding or any of your favorite pie fillings to the crust. No baking required. Chocolate S’mores PieI decided to make a gluten-free chocolate s’mores pie to top my delicious new gluten-free graham cracker crust, after all, nothing goes better with graham crackers than chocolate and marshmallows, right? (Please note I used a meringue vs. marshmallow fluff. It tastes amazing – promise!) I followed this recipe from Taste of Home to create this chocolate s’mores pie that sat beautifully upon my gluten-free graham cracker crust. The pie was a decadent treat and one my entire family loved. Just look at those beautiful layers of graham crackers, chocolate and meringue.

Nutrition values are for the graham cracker crust only, not the s’mores pie featured in the article. I prefer the taste of Pamela’s Honey Grahams, so I use that brand to make this crust. However, you could also use 200 grams of Schar Honeygrams or another brand. If you can’t find gluten-free graham crackers near you, you can use gluten-free cookies, animal crackers, or digestive biscuits. I used my food processor to crush the graham crackers into fine crumbly bits. You could also crush them in a zip top bag with a rolling pin. You can make this crust ahead of time. It freezes well and lasts for up to three months. I recommend freezing them in disposable metal pie pans instead of glass.

What is glutenI use Pillsbury gluten-free flour or Better Batter gluten-free flour when making my pie crust. They are a cup-for-cup, all-purpose gluten-free rice flour blend and already have the xanthan gum and starches included. Most gluten-free all-purpose flour blends have starches and xanthan gum already in them.
Is there a glutenNairn's gluten-free oat grahams are a delicious option to use for this pie crust. Pamela's also makes a gluten-free graham cracker, as does Kinnikinnick. If you have the time and are feeling ambitious, you can also make your own graham cracker from scratch.
