53+ Healthy No-Bake Desserts (With Vegan and Paleo Options)

Over 53 healthy no-bake dessert recipes from around the web, all of which are gluten-free, dairy-free, and naturally sweetened. Plus, plenty of options for grain-free, paleo, vegan, and/or raw recipes for those with dietary restrictions.

Happy first day of Summer! What’s your living environment like right now? It’s roasting in my neck of the woods, which means two main bullet points:

• I’m working in the horizontal position from my couch slash floor right now (girl doesn’t handle heat with flying colors).
• There will be no cooking, but plenty of salad and no-bake treat eating.

Welcome to a Mecca of No-Bake dessert recipes, all of which are gluten-free, cane sugar-free, and of the healthy varietal. For those of you who follow a vegan, raw, or paleo diet, there are options galore here, as the majority of the recipes are grain-free, dairy-free, and egg-less!

To make your search easy, I’ve broken the desserts into type (Popsicles & Ice Cream, Bars, Tarts, Pies, and Cheesecake, Bites/Truffles, etc) and have also noted in parentheses which recipes are vegan, raw, and paleo (unless already denoted in the title). You’ll notice many of the recipes fall under all three categories.

A couple of the recipes here do require you heat ingredients on the stovetop for a hot minute, but rest assured, there is no pre-heating, no oven-baking required for any of these treats. Without further adieu, here are over 53 no-bake desserts for summer!
