This creamy vegan vegetable chowder recipe is a cozy bowl of plant-based comfort food! A cozy hearty dinner, made root vegetables in a creamy dairy free sauce.

Fall is my favorite season to experience in New England. After a long and hot summer season I am always ready to enjoy the cool crisp autumn nights and curl up by the fire.  This autumn vegetable chowder is the perfect dinner for cozy nights like those!  This chowder makes a satisfying lunch or dinner, and can be served over rice or noodles.

This tasty fall vegan chowder contains ALL of the vegetables – cooked perfectly for a creamy and plant-based gluten free chowder that is the coziest bowl.  It’s especially loaded with fall root veggies: potatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, and onions. It also has some butternut squash in it – which we grew in our garden for the first time this year! 

We still have a few on the vine now ready to be picked, so I can’t wait to make this chowder and other vegan fall recipes soon!

This Autumn Vegetable Chowder Is:

  • Hearty
  • Flavorful
  • Thick and creamy
  • Slightly sweet
  • Loaded with vegetables
  • Vegan, gluten free, and dairy free

What’s In This Autumn Vegetable Chowder?

Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Potatoes: gives this dairy-free chowder a heartiness and creaminess
  • Sweet potatoes: same as above, but with extra natural sweetness
  • Corn: fall is corn harvesting season, and some farmer’s market would be perfect in this stew
  • Onions
  • Fresh garlic
  • Butternut Squash: one of my absolutely favorite vegetables!
  • Herbes de Provence: my favorite spice blend! This French blend has a mix of rosemary, thyme, sage, and savory for a wonderful and complex flavor.
  • Coconut Milk: I use unsweetened full-fat coconut milk, which I’d definitely recommend over lite coconut milk. The flavor makes this dish super rich and creamy without any dairy.
  • Salt & Pepper

Vegan Fall Recipes for the WIN

Fall means firewood season on our homestead.  We chop, cut, split, stack, haul, and burn all our own firewood to heat our home in the winter.  It’s a bit of a process come September/October to get the last of the wood ready for the winter.  But there’s nothing better than a warm fire on a chilly night.  I’m working on some recipes that can be cooked on a wood stove, and this is a perfect candidate!  It’s a cozy and warming vegan fall stew perfect for shorter days and long nights.

  3. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and simmer on low for 45 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and cooked through.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the coconut milk.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.  Serve warm for a hearty and filling lunch, or ladle over rice or noodles for a filling and satisfying dinner.
  6. For an Instant Pot/Pressure Cooker Version, Add the olive oil, onion, carrots, and garlic to the pot to saute for 5 to 6 minutes. Add the remainder of the ingredients (except the coconut milk) and Pressure Cook for 6 minutes. Natural release when finished, and stir in the coconut milk before serving.
