From snacks to staples, stock your kitchen with these gluten free items.

Eating gluten free can often feel challenging, especially when those without dietary restrictions have far more options than we do. But if you’re lucky enough to live near a Trader Joe’s grocery store, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how many gluten free items they offer, with new items showing up all the time.

I’ve tried nearly every gluten free food item that Trader Joe’s offers, and I’ve discovered some go-to items that I reach for consistently. In this list, I’ll share all of my favorite gluten free foods from Trader Joe’s in the hopes that you’ll find something new and exciting to add to your grocery list. The items shared below are broken into the following categories: gluten free bread & buns, gluten free crackers, gluten free breakfast foods, gluten free pasta, gluten free frozen food, gluten free snacks, gluten free cookies, donuts, & chocolate, gluten free soup & sauce, and naturally gluten free foods at Trader Joe’s.

There are so many great gluten free foods at Trader Joe’s that I decided to make this list specifically about items you can find year-round, as Trader Joe’s also has many seasonal items that are available for short amounts of time, which I’ll cover in a separate post in the future.

If you’re not familiar with Trader Joe’s, it’s a national grocery store in the U.S. that sells food and other household products, most of which are sold under their own label. They’re known for quality, affordability, and for having friendly employees.

Something to keep in mind is that some of the gluten-free options at Trader Joe’s may not be certified gluten-free and could be processed on shared equipment with gluten-containing ingredients, posing a risk of cross-contamination. Be sure to read the labels of each product carefully to make the best choice for your dietary needs, whether you have celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), gluten intolerance, or are following a gluten free diet. I have non-celiac gluten intolerance and have never had an issue with eating the gluten free foods at Trader Joe’s, but everyone’s body is different. Talk with your doctor if you’re unsure about which foods, ingredients, and levels of cross-contamination are safe for your specific health concerns. 

Finding the right gluten-free groceries can make a big difference in how you enjoy your meals. Below are some of my favorite gluten free foods at Trader Joe’s that are available year-round!

Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Bread & Buns

Trader Joe’s has a wide selection of gluten free bread and bun options.

Gluten Free Whole Grain Bread

Trader Joe’s has many sandwich breads, and I purchase all of them regularly to give myself a variety, although if I had to choose just one, this is what I would pick. I tend to stock up on multiple loafs of bread and freeze them so I always have bread on hand that just needs to be quickly toasted to defrost it.
They also sell white sandwich bread, multigrain bread, and cinnamon raisin bread.
Where to find it: In the bread section there is a designated gluten free shelf.

---

Gluten Free Hamburger Buns

These are my favorite gluten free hamburger buns out of every option I’ve tried from other stores. Although gluten free buns tend to be more dense than wheat buns, these are softer and fluffier than any other brands I’ve tried.
Where to find it: In the bread section there is a designated gluten free shelf.

---

Gluten Free Almond Flour Tortillas

I’m so happy I found these for making sandwich wraps and quesadillas.
Where to find it: In the bread section there is a designated gluten free shelf.

Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Crackers

There’s something for everyone with the variety of gluten free crackers at Trader Joe’s.

Savory Squares Crackers

These gluten free crackers are my latest discovery and current snack obsession. They taste like Cheez-Its but are vegan, so they’re dairy free. I always eat them straight from the box, but I also want to try them with a dip, and to crush some up to use as a breading for fish or chicken.
Where to find it: In the cracker section.

---

Original Savory Thin Mini Crackers

These gluten free crackers are great for snacking on their own, or with a dip like hummus.
Where to find it: In the cracker section.

Organic Brown Rice Cake Thins

I love having these in my pantry for topping with peanut butter and jelly, or sandwich meat, cheese, and mustard.

Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Breakfast Foods

Don’t miss these gluten free breakfast items that can expand your morning food options in new ways.

Gluten Free Cinnamon Coffee Cake Muffins

These are so delicious, especially warmed up. Trader Joe’s has numerous gluten free muffins, and they’re all good, with these being my favorite flavor.
Where to find it: In the bread section there is a designated gluten free shelf.

---

Gluten Free Almost Everything Bagels

I always have these gluten free bagels in my freezer, which makes for a great breakfast with cream cheese, or an egg and cheese on a bagel. They also sell plain gluten free bagels.
Where to find it: In the bread section there is a designated gluten free shelf.

---

Gluten Free English Muffins

These are amazing. I was torn on whether to put them in the breakfast category or the bread & buns category, because I use them as buns for burgers and sandwiches just as often as I use them for breakfast. I keep them in my freezer and toast one when I’m ready to eat it.
Where to find it: In the bread section there is a designated gluten free shelf.

---

Gluten Free Rolled Oats

I use these rolled oats for making overnight oats, oatmeal cookies, and adding them to smoothies.

Where to find it: In the refrigerated pasta section.

---

Cauliflower Gnocchi

I like cooking these in a pan with butter and any fresh vegetables I have, like mushrooms, spinach, etc. I’ve also heard that they’re great in an air fryer.

Gluten Free Egg Fettuccine Pasta

Great with pasta sauce or pesto, and a protein like chicken or shrimp.
Where to find it: In the refrigerated pasta section.

Organic Red Lentil Sedanini

Trader Joe’s has many gluten free pasta options in the pantry section, but these hold up the best in my opinion.

Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Frozen Food

These gluten free frozen foods are great to have in your freezer for when you need a quick and easy meal.

Cheese & Green Chile Tamales

I like eating these with salsa. It’s a good quick meal to have on hand, as they microwave in just a few minutes.

I like the size, shape, and consistency of these tortilla chips, and that they don’t taste too salty.

Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Cookies, Donuts, & Chocolate

Satisfy your sweet tooth with these gluten free dessert foods.

Super Chocolatey Gluten Free Chocolate Chunk Cookie Dough

Another of my recent discoveries and new obsessions. I’ve been making them one at a time in the toaster oven whenever I’m craving a sweet snack. I like to undercook them slightly so they’re soft and gooey.
Where to find it: In the refrigerated section.

---

Gluten Free Chocolate Chunk Cookies With Sea Salt

It’s hard to find gluten free packaged cookies like these—they’re wonderfully soft and oversized.

Some additional grocery items that are naturally gluten free that I like to stock up on at Trader Joe’s are their fruit, especially the bananas; frozen fruits (great for smoothies); frozen vegetables for adding to easy weeknight meals; and cheeses (always check the ingredients labels). I find their prices are usually better than at other grocery stores in my area.
