Some of us are “last minute” people. Yes, I’m in that group. Here are over 20 recipes for last minute gluten-free Halloween treats that you can still make in time for your Halloween event! The celebrations have already started around here. I’ve updated this recipe roundup for this year so you all will have new recipes to try as well as links to some old favorites that you can’t wait to make again. I’m happy to remind you about the latter. Let the tasty Halloween fun begin! Full disclosure: A couple of these recipes require some prep ahead of time or a special “tool” (like a mold), so be sure to plan for that when you see that info included with a recipe.

Hey Maggie–Yikes, I’m more behind on commenting here on AGFD than I thought! 😉 I’m always happy to share your wonderful recipes, dear! I really appreciated you sharing this roundup with others, too. Last, your kiddos were so cute for Halloween! So glad I got to see them on Facebook. 🙂

Hi Shirley,
I wanted to thank you for these round-ups that you share regularly. It’s a great resource when I need to find a no-fail recipe quickly!
Take care,

Shirley says
Hey Brandae–Thank you so much for this comment, dear! It’s really helpful to get positive feedback and know that the roundups are truly helping the AGFD readers. 🙂 Not everyone can follow every post, so you’re right that the roundups can be a good way to hone in a great, “no-fail” recipe very quickly. Love that!
Hugs to you and all your boys!
Shirley
