Hot Corn Dip is the delicious appetizer that you’ve been searching for. This dip is easy to make and will please a crowd of your friends!
Hot Corn Dip – Dairy Free and Gluten Free
This Hot Corn Dip will be loved by all your dairy-free friends AND your dairy-loving friends! It is made with dairy-free products BUT all my dairy-loving friends couldn’t tell the difference! (I don’t think of this as tricking them…I think of this as EDUCATING them, without them knowing it)
HOT CORN DIP-Yep, it is that good
I am always looking for new super easy appetizers to make and this Hot Corn Dip has been on my mind for a while.
In our house, dairy free vegan appetizers are always on my radar, as are non-dairy appetizers as well. (I have to have a variety!) Truth be told, I really love the taste of gluten-free dips. I can’t honestly taste a difference, I love knowing that I’m putting goodness in my tummy that my body loves as well.
With football season and tailgating coming up, it’s important for me to have a plethora of gluten-free appetizers for parties and events that we want to attend. Have you ever been somewhere and you can’t enjoy any of the offered food? It’s really not that much fun, is it?
That’s why I always try to plan ahead and stock up on some fun vegetarian and vegan appetizer recipes that are also gluten-free recipes as well. I love to have easy game day appetizers that everyone can eat.
One can never have too many gluten free dairy free appetizers right? Right.
And if you are anything like me, you are a snacker? I seriously cannot say no to a good spinach dip. Seriously, it’s one of my weaknesses! Superman has kryptonite, and I have spinach dip. I make this one with spinach and asparagus that is amazing!
Have I mentioned that I’m already planning ahead to Super Bowl Sunday? Seriously, my big game day appetizer, finger food and dip list is already about a mile long and growing each and every day.
True story.
Hot Corn Dip – Perfect to Pair with Tortilla Chips
Do you know what I love most about this recipe? It’s simple.
I feel like I’m always saying that about my recipes, but it’s the absolute truth. I love how simple this recipe is. The ingredients are simple, the process is simple, but trust in the fact that the taste is quite complex!
While the variety of ingredients can vary a bit to add, I like to make this with some canned green chilies from our pantry, some frozen corn from our freezer and some fresh ingredients from the fridge!
During the summer months, I’ll serve this up with some freshly roasted chilies well. The flavor is out of this world!
And while this does taste amazing with tortilla chips, it’s also darn good on deviled eggs and in stuffed mushrooms as well. Seriously, this dip can go just about anywhere and taste like a million bucks! It’s a very versatile gluten free party food.
Gluten Free Cracker for All your Dipping Needs
And just like with any amazing dip, you need a fabulous dipper! Let me let you in on a little secret, the longer the chip, the more room there is for a dip, right? Don’t waste your time on those broken ones! Leave those crumbs at the bottom of the big and aim for the perfect triangles!
To compliment this dip, I turned to my reliable chips from Beanfields Snacks. These crunchy chips are gluten-free and vegan! Plus, they taste absolutely amazing and are the perfect bite size.
These chips are certified gluten-free, vegan and Non-GMO project verified. Beanfields Bean and Rice Chips make many delicious flavors of chips so make certain to check out all their delicious options! These are perfect for all of your vegan recipes that require a dipper.
For this recipe, I choose to bring two of my favorite flavors together to compliment my corn dip! Sea Salt and Black Bean Sea Salt. Yum, yum and yum.
I always like to ask friends that have tried my recipes if they have any tips for others and one tidbit of information that I learned was that this dip also tastes well on a sweet potato chip, too! The sweet flavor seems to compliment this Hot Corn Dip with ease!
As you read through this recipe, feel free to add your own style to make it your own. Like I said, this is a versatile dip recipe that can be as simple or as fancy as you want it to be.

Sherri says
Oops ~ meant to ask: Do dairy free items have gluten free soy in them?
Cindy says
Hi Sherri, it depends. Some dairy free items are made nut-free and often times have soy. The ones made with nuts are often soy free 🙂 Its kinda a toss up. I can help you search for one if you like. Let me know!
KatJBM says
I am not vegan nor is anyone in my family. I am however dairy free due to an allergy. I have made this dip going on 4 times. My meat eating husband craves this dip. I’ve made it for parties and it is always the biggest hit. No one ever believes me when I tell them it’s vegan. Thank you for creating this gem!
Cindy says
You are so welcome!! I am so happy that you make it over and over again and love it so much! I also love to hear that your meat eating husband craves this dip! That is great!! Thanks for coming back to let me know!

Comment from email submission: Hi Cindy. My family is on a journey right now eliminating many of the most common allergens. With Superbowl Sunday and our annual party quickly looming, I hit the interests looking for gf, df, delicious-sounding recipes. I found your “Hot Corn Dip – DF and GF”. My last experience with vegan cheese was nasty, I threw it in the trash. This time, I was determined to try again. I went on line look g for reviews of the vegan cheese available at my local store with a health food section. They gave the thumbs up to several kinds, so I got all the df ingredients I needed. You were right. This dip was a huge hit!!! Thank you.❤👍 – J. S.
Ann says
How is this dairy free w cream cheese and sour cream in it?
Cindy Gordon says
Hi Ann, that is a great question. You can find dairy free cream cheese and dairy free sour cream. There are lots of brands to choose from in your local grocer. I prefer the Tofutti brand for both items 🙂
Sarah says
Hi! Can I make this a day ahead and just pop it in oven for tomorrow? Thanks!
Cindy Gordon says
Hi Sarah! I am not sure, I haven’t tried that but I think it would work to prep it and then heat it the next day! I think it should be okay! Let me know if you try it and how it does!
