More S'mores: 13 Creative Vegan S'mores Recipes

S’mores are a quintessential summertime treat. A popular dessert for beachside bonfires and camping trips, s’mores are quick-and-easy dessert that packs an explosion of sweetness. 

You won’t need a campfire to enjoy these recipes, but you’ll still relish mouthfuls of rich chocolate, creamy marshmallows, and crunchy graham cracker taste. Here are 13 of our favorite recipes for whenever we feel like visiting S’mores City.

But first, let’s break down traditional s’mores. 

The anatomy of s’mores

Classic s’mores call for graham crackers, roasted marshmallows, and chocolate squares. Relatively easy to put together, s’mores call for roasting marshmallows—whether it’s over a campfire, bonfire, or your stove. Once browned on all sides, sandwich your marshmallow between two graham crackers and a piece of chocolate. Voila! Your s’mores are ready to be enjoyed.

Are s’mores vegan?

In short: not always. The three components of s’mores—graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate—aren’t always vegan. But luckily, vegan alternatives are readily available.
