    I started compiling this collection of dairy-free Halloween recipes about seven years ago. It started with some spooky sweets and eats from my own kitchen, but grew to include drinks, snacks, small plates, and desserts from a range of recipe creators. Now we have about 100 dairy-free recipes for Halloween celebrations, whether it’s at work, home, or school. There’s no need to toil away, searching for the best dish. We have a frightfully good selection that will please every ghost, goblin, and witch. You can scroll through to check them out, or jump ahead with these quick links:

    More Quick Tips for Easy Dairy-Free Halloween Treats

    The dairy-free Halloween recipes above are all pretty easy to make. But you can easily go off script and turn various recipes into Halloween themed eats. Here’s how.

    Make it Orange: Almost any cupcake flavor can become a Halloween treat with a good dairy-free buttercream frosting recipe and some orange (or red and yellow) food dye. Simply tint the frosting orange and garnish with sprinkles. Use Halloween themed sprinkles or orange, yellow, and white sprinkles for “candy corn” cupcakes. You can alternatively frost cookies in the same way.

    Add Eyeballs: That’s it! Any treat becomes spooky with a set of eyeballs or random placement of eyeballs. You can buy candy eyeballs at the store. They are usually dairy-free, but always check! Or you can make your own with a white icing and dairy-free chocolate chips. Simply whisk powdered sugar with a little water until you get a pipeable icing (or use frosting). Dollop it like an eyeball and then place a chocolate chip upside down in it (center, bottom, top, or side – wherever the eyeball should be looking!).

    Draw a Cobweb: Pipe white icing on a cake or dairy-free sour cream on dinner in a cobweb design. This video offers a very quick tutorial. All you need is a flat surface on the food. It could be bowls of chili, a casserole (do corner cobwebs), or even a dip.

    Use Cookie Cutters: You can cut out both sweet and savory foods into Halloween shapes with cookie cutters. Think rice crispy treats, brownies, cake, sandwiches, toast, Jell-O … the list goes on!
