Gluten-Free Oreos
Gluten-free Oreos are chocolate sandwich cookies made with rice flour, tapioca starch and whole oat flour instead of wheat. A 2-cookie pack has 110 calories in the original version and 140 in Double Stuf. Both contain soy.
I built this guide from the numbers printed on the Mondelēz International box, since that’s where the facts live. You’ll see both ingredient lists, both nutrition columns, and what the label does and doesn’t say about vanilla, soy and oats.
These gluten-free Oreos are a chocolatey, creamy treat kids will get excited about! Discover more gluten-free snacks for kids for fun, easy-to-love bites that might become their next lunchbox favorites!

What Are Gluten-Free Oreos?
Gluten-free Oreos are chocolate sandwich cookies from Mondelēz International, sold in a box of individually wrapped 2-cookie packs. There are two versions: the original gluten-free cookie and the Gluten Free Double Stuf, which weighs 29g per pack instead of 22g. Both are made with real cocoa and carry a gluten-free label.
The box in this listing is a variety pack, so both versions come in one purchase. The cookies are firm, chocolate flavored and listed for all ages.
What Ingredients Are in Gluten-Free Oreos?
Gluten-free Oreos list sugar, white rice flour, tapioca starch, palm oil, soybean and/or canola oil and whole oat flour first. Cornstarch, cocoa processed with alkali, invert sugar, soy lecithin, baking soda, salt, xanthan gum, chocolate and artificial flavor follow. The allergen line reads: contains soy.
Original vs Double Stuf Ingredient Lists
The two lists match item for item. Only the order changes. Double Stuf puts palm oil second, right after sugar, while the original puts white rice flour second. Ingredients are listed by weight, so palm oil outweighs the flours in the Double Stuf.
What Replaces the Wheat Flour?
White rice flour, tapioca starch and cornstarch fill the role wheat flour usually plays. Xanthan gum is probably there to bind the dough, since that’s a common job for it in gluten-free baking. The label doesn’t spell out each role, so that part is my read, not Mondelēz’s word.
Are Gluten-Free Oreos Safe for Celiac Disease?
Gluten-free Oreos carry a gluten-free label, which in the US means less than 20 parts per million of gluten. The cookies also contain whole oat flour, and oats can pick up gluten during growing and milling. If you have celiac disease, ask your doctor or dietitian before you buy a box.
The FDA’s page on gluten and food labeling explains the 20 ppm limit and which foods can carry the claim.
The NIDDK guide to eating and diet with celiac disease says oats should be labeled gluten-free, because cross-contact is common.
The listing doesn’t say whether the oats in these cookies are specially sourced. The Mondelēz number on the box is 1-800-622-4726, and that’s the call I’d make if oats are a concern for you.
Gluten-Free Oreos Nutrition: Original vs Double Stuf
Per 2-cookie pack, the original gluten-free Oreo has 110 calories, 4.5g of fat, 16g of carbohydrate and 9g of added sugar. The Double Stuf pack has 140 calories, 7g of fat, 21g of carbohydrate and 13g of added sugar. Both have 85mg of sodium, under 1g of fiber and under 1g of protein.

How Much More Is in Double Stuf?
A Double Stuf pack weighs 29g against 22g for the original. For that extra 7g you get 30 more calories, 2.5g more fat and 4g more sugar. Per gram the two are close: about 5 calories for the original and 4.8 for Double Stuf.
The Sugar Number
Added sugar is 18% of the daily value in the original pack and 26% in Double Stuf. I’d say that’s the number to watch, and sugar is the first ingredient on both labels.
The NIDDK also points out that packaged gluten-free foods can be higher in fat and sugar than the versions made with gluten.
Vitamins and Minerals
Neither pack adds much here. Each has 0.6mg of iron (4% DV) and 30mg of potassium, with no calcium and no vitamin D.
Are Gluten-Free Oreos Vanilla Flavored?
The listing describes these Oreos as chocolate sandwich cookies and doesn’t call them vanilla. The ingredient list names artificial flavor without saying which one, so the label doesn’t confirm a vanilla taste. If vanilla is a dealbreaker for you, call the number on the box or visit oreo.com before you buy.
Do Gluten-Free Oreos Contain Soy?
Yes. Both gluten-free Oreo versions list soy lecithin, and the allergen statement says contains soy. The label also notes a bioengineered food ingredient. It names no other allergen, but recipes change, so read the box each time you buy.

Do gluten-free Oreos have trans fat?
No. The label shows 0g of trans fat in both versions. Saturated fat is 1.5g in the original and 2.5g in Double Stuf.

Who makes gluten-free Oreos?
Mondelēz International makes them, and the box says Mondelēz Global LLC distributes them from East Hanover, NJ. You can call 1-800-622-4726 with questions about the product.
Is a gluten-free diet healthier if I don’t have celiac disease?
The NIDDK says researchers have found no evidence that a gluten-free diet improves health or weight loss for the general population. Packaged gluten-free foods can also run higher in fat and sugar. I’d treat these cookies as a treat, same as any other cookie.
Conclusion
Pick the original pack if you want fewer calories and less sugar: 110 calories and 9g of added sugar. Pick Double Stuf if you want the bigger cookie and you’re fine with 140 calories and 13g of added sugar.
Before you buy gluten-free Oreos, check the soy statement and the oat flour against your own needs. If celiac disease is part of your picture, talk to your doctor first.
