Dairy-Free & Soy-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup (Vegan & Gluten-Free, too!)



There are so many recipes that depend upon cream of mushroom soup and there is just one small problem — cream of mushroom soup is full of dairy and soy! I thought I’d have to forego all those standby recipes that families depend on in their menu rotations . . . chicken pot pie, green bean casserole, noodle casseroles, chicken bakes . . . and the list goes on and on. Thankfully, I found some recipes online for dairy-free, soy-free cream of mushroom soup. After combining the ingredients in some of them, tweaking the cooking methods, and adjusting the seasonings, I came upon my own cream of mushroom soup substitute. It works great in all recipes calling for cream of mushroom soup, but I don’t recommend freezing it because the texture doesn’t hold up very well due to the flour that is used to thicken the soup. I hope this will open back up for you some old favorite recipes that you’d set aside for allergy reasons!


Ingredients

  • 1/4 c. canned or fresh mushrooms, finely chopped

  • 2 tbsp. dairy-free, soy-free butter (I recommend Earth Balance Soy-Free Buttery Spread)

  • 1 tbsp. onion, chopped

  • 1 tsp. garlic, minced

  • 1/2 tsp. dried parsley

  • 1 tsp. salt

  • Black pepper, to taste

  • 3 tbsp.all-purpose flour (Note: for gluten-free version, use gluten-free flour such as (I like King Arthur Gluten-Free Flour)

  • 1 1/4 c. almond milk, oat milk, or your favorite non-dairy milk

Directions

  • Melt the “butter” in a skillet and sauté the onions and garlic until fragrant (approx. 30 seconds). Then, add the mushrooms, parsley, salt and pepper and sauté for another 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms soften and begin to release their liquid.

  • In a separate bowl, heat the “milk” in the microwave until hot (approx. 3-5 minutes, depending on your microwave).

  •  Over medium heat and stirring constantly, whisk the flour into the mushroom mixture until it is hot and bubbly.

  • Lastly, add the hot “milk,” whisking constantly until the soup is a thick, creamy texture. The soup will thicken up a bit more as it cools, so keep this in mind.
