Food allergies can be challenging but there are a lot of options for gluten free dairy free breakfasts. I’ve created a list of easy, delicious, healthy recipes and no recipe needed ideas for busy mornings.
I also include lists of gluten free dairy products we like that you can buy at your local grocery store. So whether you are on an elimination diet or you are strictly gluten and dairy free this list will help you navigate your breakfasts.
Many of these can be whipped up in twenty minutes or made ahead of time for a grab-and-go breakfast. You always have time for a healthy breakfast for the whole family!

What Ingredients To Avoid When Dairy Free
There are several reasons why people may choose a dairy free diet. The main issue with dairy is that it can cause inflammation. Some people are lactose intolerant while others have a milk allergy. Other people find that going dairy free can help with acne or sinusitis.
You will notice that eggs are NOT considered a dairy product. There has been much confusion over this but even though they are an animal by product they are not considered dairy products. They contain no lactose.
When you are dairy free you have to avoid butter, cream, milk, and any products containing these milk products. Learn more at Johns Hopkins Medicine.
Carefully read ingredient labels and look out for words like these:
- butter, butter fat, artificial butter
- casein
- cream
- cheese
- ghee
- lactose
- milk
- sour cream and yogurt
- whey

Oatmeal
Oats are a nutrient-dense and filling way to start your day. They can be made quickly and easily in the microwave or stovetop and then topped with lots of healthy toppings.
Put together some of your favorite dairy-free topping combos and eat oatmeal with me! Oatmeal is gluten-free as long as the label clearly states it. See my list of 45 Healthy Oatmeal Toppings.
Almond milk is our go-to non-dairy milk for making oatmeal. Personally, we love Califia Unsweetened Almond Milk and for chocolate chips, we like Enjoy Life Foods because they are gluten and dairy free.
