Is Green Bean Casserole gluten-free?

No. Traditional green bean casseroles use canned cream of mushroom soups that use gluten-containing wheat flour and starches to thicken it, and french fried onions battered with wheat flour.

Can I make this Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole Core AIP-compliant?

Green beans are eliminated in the Core Autoimmune Protocol version of the AIP diet , so this recipe is not Core AIP-compliant but complies with Modified AIP. The green beans are a main feature and cannot be substituted. If you're looking for Core AIP-compliant casseroles, try my beef & kale casserole , plantain casserole , or my sweet potato casserole .

Can I used canned green beans or cream of mushroom soup?

No. See my notes in the Ingredient Substitutions .

Can I make this dish ahead of time?

I do not recommend baking this dish ahead of time and storing in the fridge until ready to serve. See the How To Prep Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole section for more info.

What should I serve with this gluten-free stuffing?

My egg-free, Gluten-free Stuffing is a great accompaniment. Check out my AIP Thanksgiving recipes for more gluten-free side dishes, mains, and desserts, and these Healthy Thanksgiving Appetizers for gluten-free finger foods to serve at your Thanksgiving or holiday meal. For a weeknight dinner, I think this veggie side might go well with crispy air fryer chicken or roasted veggies & salmon .

Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole • Heal Me Delicious

Description

This Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole is a lightened up version of the classic Thanksgiving side dish. It’s made with fresh green beans, a homemade, dairy-free cream of mushroom soup, and topped with crispy, golden brown shallots.

Ingredients

Units Scale

avocado oil (for frying shallots)
6–7 large shallots, sliced
1.5 lbs fresh green beans, washed and trimmed
1.5 cups cream of mushroom soup
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 TBSP fresh thyme (whole leaves)

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F and grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Add shallots to medium saucepan with enough avocado oil to cover shallots. Turn the stove on to medium heat. As the shallots begin to fry, stir as needed to prevent burning as the edges may begin to brown first. When the shallots become lightly golden brown, remove from the oil and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. They will continue to crisp as they cool.*
Working in batches, cook green beans in a large pot of boiling, salted water until bright green, about 2-3 minutes. Drain and rinse in an ice bath.
In a large bowl, combine green beans, cream of mushroom, sea salt, black pepper, thyme, and 1/4 of the crispy shallots. Then transfer to prepared baking dish.
Bake uncovered for 10 minutes.
Remove from oven. Top with remaining crispy fried shallots and serve immediately.**

**Only top the casserole with the remaining crispy shallots when you are ready to serve the dish. See the How to Make Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole section for more on this tip.
