Make Cream of Mushroom Soup Dairy Free

This creamy mushroom soup is a fantastic take on the classic without all the dairy. I’m all about making recipes plant-based and dairy free when I can. Dairy-free cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. You can achieve total richness and creaminess with some simple swaps. By building meals around vegan pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make better meals for you and your family. 

I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegan recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and tasty recipes are fantastic meatless and dairy free meals for your table.

How Do I Make This Mushroom Soup without Cream?

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over lot to medium heat.  Add the onion, garlic and sauté for 5 or 6 minutes until veggies become soft.
  2. Add the salt, Herbes de Provence , and mushrooms and sauté for about 10 minutes on low heat, covering the pot in between stirring.
  3. Stir in the flour, and mix well which will form a thick roux with the flour and the water released from the mushrooms.
  4. To the pot, add the vegetable stock, coconut milk, and simmer for an additional 15 minutes until the mushrooms are soft and cooked through.
  5. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and fresh herbs to taste and garnish with fresh thyme or fresh parsley.

Recipe Notes

For a pureed soup, you can use an immersion blender to emulsify the soup.

    I made this soup twice, first as instructed, it was very good. It was good enough that I made it again. Last night I made again the change I made was I omitted the thyme and added some lemongrass stalks from my garden and some grated ginger (freeze the whole ginger and grate while frozen) and it was the preferred method. Todays leftovers were better than the night before. I will add this to my monthly rotations of soups this fall and winter. What I love most about this soup is not only is it delish but really quick and easy. Thank you for sharing. Butterfly kisses to Dozer ???

      Hello Julie,
      I’d recommend using corn starch in place of regular flour. Corn starch will thicken the soup (which is the point of the flour) nicely. I haven’t tested this with almond flour, however I would be concerned with it becoming too gritty in the soup. Even a finely ground almond flour can have some grit. Either use corn starch or omit the flour all together. – Kelly

    This was SO good! I am gluten free and used corn starch instead of flour. I also added some aged balsamic vinegar and white wine. Very good!

    The flavor was very good! I used coconut flour, and it didn’t quite make a roux… instead, it coated all of the mushrooms and never fully incorporated unfortunately, giving the soup a very grainy texture. Do you have a GF flour of choice?

    I just now made the Cream of Mushroom soup with coconut milk, intending to use it in vegan green bean casserole. Oh my goodness!!! This soup is so delicious, I had to force myself to save enough for the casserole. I could just gobble it all down, as-is.
