If you know me, then you know I love making pies. Not every pie needs to have a traditional pie crust. This gluten free Oreo pie crust is super easy to make and only requires 2 ingredients.
A homemade Oreo crust is perfect for no bake pies, like my vegan grasshopper pie or my Oreo pie. A crumb crust also works great for other no bake dessert recipes, like a chocolate delight, or for cheesecake recipes.
I've included instructions for baking the prepared crust, but it's optional. You can also just use your Oreo pie crust without baking, much like you would with a store-bought Oreo pie crust. See my notes at the bottom of the post for more details.

Ingredient Notes
This easy recipe requires only two simple ingredients that can be found at most grocery stores.
- Gluten free Oreos - You can use name brand Oreos or a similar brand, like Glutino or Goodie Girl. You can even use flavor Oreos, like mint or vanilla.
- Vegan Butter - I use Country Crock plant butter for most of my recipes. If you're not vegan, use dairy butter in the same measure.
See recipe card below for full ingredient list with quantities.
Substitutions
This recipe will work with any sandwich cookie that has cream filling inside. If you want to make a gluten free cookie crust with a non-sandwich type cookie, I recommend checking out my gluten free graham cracker crust recipe.
How to make a Gluten Free Oreo Crust
An Oreo pie crust recipe is simple to make. I recommend a food processor for quickness, but if you don't have one you can crush the cookies by hand.
STEP 1: Place the whole Oreo cookies into the bowl of a food processor.
STEP 2: Process the Oreos until they are fine crumbs, like sand.
STEP 3: Combine the melted butter with the cookie crumbs in a large bowl. Press the crumb mixture into your pie pan, using a flat bottomed measuring cup to make a even layer.
Don't press down to hard otherwise the crust will become compacted and hard.
Recipe FAQs
Place your Oreo cookies, cream included, in a gallon size ziploc bag. Remove as much air as possible and seal the bag. Then use a wooden rolling pin or similar item to smash the Oreos.
Regular Oreos are not gluten free. Oreo brand does make a gluten free version of the product which is widely available.
For gluten free cookies, you can also use Glutino Brand, Goody Girl Chocolate Cream Cookies or Trader Joes Gluten Free Joe Joes. They all taste just like original Oreos and will work fine for this crust.
Name brand Oreos are vegan. They contain no animal products or dairy.
