Dunkin' Donuts Dairy-Free Menu Guide (Vegan & Allergen Options) (2024)

Updated April 2024! Yes, it’s true! Dunkin’ launched an entire line of vegan donuts … in Belgium. They still haven’t put dairy-free donuts on the menu in North America, but this massive coffee and baked goods chain is about more than just fried dough. In fact, they officially dropped the donuts from their name. In early 2019, Dunkin’ Donuts became Dunkin’ and they are now serving more special diet options than their direct competitors. We have the latest options in our full Dunkin’ dairy-free menu guide below.

Dunkin’Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Custom Order & Vegan Options

Way back in 2008, Dunkin’ Donuts launched soymilk at select locations. Then, in 2014, they partnered with Almond Breeze to swap the soy with vanilla almond milk. At first, it was a test market, but in 2016, almond milk rolled out nationwide. In early 2020, Dunkin’ tested a second milk beverage, Planet Oat Oatmilk, in their California Dunkin’ stores. It was a hit, so they promptly added it to their entire U.S. menu. In 2021, they didn’t mess around with test markets. They went nationwide with Coconutmilk beverage, and even launched some dairy-free Coconut Refreshers. Sadly, Dunkin officially discontinued their coconut milk option and the related Refreshers when the clock struck 12:01 in 2024. But they still offer the almond and oat milk options, along with all of the regular and custom order choices outlined below!

Be aware of special order requirements in parentheses () next to the menu items, and see the Heads Up notes to help fill in the blanks. Please note that this guide is for the U.S. locations. Options may vary in other countries.

Other Allergen & Dietary Notes: All items listed below are made without egg, nuts, and peanut, unless otherwise noted in the name or parentheses. All drinks, the snack bacon and hashbrowns are made without gluten, but Dunkin Donuts does not offer any gluten-free bread products at this time. Most items at Dunkin contain soy oil and / or soy lecithin, but are made without soy protein. The dairy-free drink menus below are also vegan-friendly. For vegan food options, see the Vegan Menu Guide at the bottom of this post.

Donuts & Pastries

• Corn Muffins (contains egg)

Vegan Donuts? Sorry, All current Dunkin’ Donuts in the United States contain milk, wheat, egg, and soy. Some also contain nuts. They have rolled out a full line of vegan donuts in Belgium, and are trialing a vegan dulce de leche donut in Chile only.

Gluten-Free Options? Unfortunately, the packaged dairy-free Dunkin Gluten-Free Fudge Brownie was short lived. It has been discontinued.

Heads Up! The Pumpkin, Chocolate Chip, Coffee Cake, and Blueberry Muffins at Dunkin all contain milk. The Banana Chocolate Chip Bread was dairy-free, but it has been discontinued.

Bagels & Breads

• Cinnamon Raisin Bagels
• Everything Bagels
• Multigrain Bagels
• Plain Bagels
• Sesame Seed Bagels
• English Muffin
• Sourdough Bread
• Tortilla

Heads Up! The croissant dough at Dunkin is actually made with dairy-free margarine, but they use a glaze on the croissants that contains sodium caseinate (milk protein). The pancakes (for wraps) do contain milk.

Dairy-Free Spreads: They do not offer dairy-free cream cheese or peanut butter. But they now have vegan avocado spread available to order. Their Butter Spread does contain milk.

Sandwiches & Wraps

• Bacon Egg Bagel or English Muffin (no cheese)
• Double Sausage Breakfast Sandwich (no cheese) (contains egg)
• Egg Bagel or English Muffin (no cheese)
• Sausage Egg Bagel or English Muffin (no cheese)
• Sourdough Breakfast Sandwich (no cheese) (contains egg)
• Sweet Black Pepper Bacon Wake-Up Wrap (no cheese) (contains egg)
• Tuna Salad Bagel (kosher option; where available) (contains egg)
• Turkey Sausage Egg Bagel or English Muffin (no cheese)
• Wake-Up Wrap (no cheese) (contains egg)

Heads Up! Always verify that your location does not butter the bread – it is not corporate policy, but franchise owners can take liberties. The Veggie Meat products (bacon, sausage) used on the Kosher versions of their breakfast sandwiches do contain milk. Dunkin no longer carries Beyond Sausage. The pesto used at Dunkin does contain cheese. The Scrambled Egg, in the limited time wraps, does contain milk.

Snacks

• Hash Browns
• Snacking Bacon
• Avocado Toast
• Bacon Topped Avocado Toast

Coffee & Tea Drinks

Dairy-Free Milk Beverages: Vanilla Almond Breeze Almondmilk, Planet Oat Oatmilk (some stores charge extra for a dairy-free milk substitution)

Dairy-Free Coffee Syrups & Swirls: Brown Sugar Cookie Flavored Syrup (seasonal), Brownie Batter Swirl (seasonal), Chai Tea Syrup, Churro Swirl (seasonal), Hazelnut Flavor Syrup, Matcha Blend, Mocha Swirl, Peppermint Mocha Swirl (seasonal), Salted Caramel Syrup (NOT the Caramel Swirl). The Coffee Swirl is also dairy-free, but it’s not an add on – it’s used in the base of some of their drinks.

Dairy-Free Sugar-Free Coffee Flavor Shots: Vanilla, Hazelnut, Toasted Almond, Blueberry, Raspberry, Coconut (see Swirls vs Flavor Shots to know the difference)

Dairy-Free Toppings: When in season, the holiday Cookie Butter Crumbles and Rainbow Sprinkles appear to be made without dairy, but verify the natural flavors on the label with your local barista. The seasonal Cinnamon Sugar topping is made without milk.

Heads Up! The Peanut Butter Cup, Pumpkin, Cake Batter, Butter Pecan, Caramel, White Chocolate, Pink Velvet, Toasted White Chocolate, and French Vanilla Swirls do contain milk. Several of the Dunkin swirls rotate with the seasons. They usually only have a few available at a time. Technically, Dunkin does not offer a dairy-free Cappuccino. It’s a steamed milk drink with foam, and they don’t use any dairy-free “barista” milk alternatives, so they only recommend dairy milk for making it. But your local Dunkin barista might make you one on request. That said, none of the menu cold foams are dairy-free.

• Coolatta, Frozen Strawberry
• Lemonade Refresher, Kiwi Watermelon
• Lemonade Refresher, Mango Pineapple
• Lemonade Refresher, Strawberry Dragonfruit
• Refresher, Kiwi Watermelon

Heads Up! The Vanilla Spice and Hot Chocolate drinks cannot be made dairy-free. Also, their frozen beverages may contain milk or soy due to potential cross-contamination with the equipment. The Vanilla Coolatta contains milk, and the Coolatta “Floats” contain dairy.

Where to Find Dunkin’

In 2018, Dunkin’ Donuts shuttered all of their remaining Canadian locations. They still have a large based of restaurants in South Korea, and a smattering of other locations in Asia, South Africa, Europe, and South America. In fact, they have nearly 12,000 locations in 36 countries. But the information in this post is specifically for the U.S. Dunkin’ shops.
