Jump to RecipeThis creamy vegan celery soup recipe is a delicious and easy soup to enjoy for a light lunch, or to add to any recipe that calls for cream of celery soup. This plant-based recipe is made from celery, vegetables, spices, and a creamy coconut milk soup.
This is a fantastic dairy free celery soup that is ready in 30 minutes. I love topping this soup with delicious vegan croutons, and serving it up with a delicious spinach, avocado, & tomato salad for a complete meal.

I love a really clean, simple soup recipe made with simple and whole ingredients. This creamy vegan celery soup recipe is warm, comforting, and I can feel so good about eating it.
This is a great soup to make if you are cooking with a recipe that uses canned cream of celery soup (like a casserole, or hot dish). It’s great to add to other recipes as a base, or just to enjoy by itself, warmed with a side of crusty bread to dip into it!

What’s In Vegan Cream of Celery Soup?
Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Good Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Celery – I use both the ribs and the leaves of the celery – they both have great flavor, and the soup gets pureed together so it’s one creamy consistency.
- Onion
- Garlic
- Low Sodium Vegetable Stock – I always use low sodium or no-salt-added broth or stock to start, and then I can add salt or other spices later if needed. Check out more low sodium recipes here!
- Herbs de Provence: my favorite spice blend! This French blend has a mix of rosemary, thyme, sage, and savory for a wonderful and complex flavor.
- Salt
- 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.
- Sea salt and black pepper
How Do I Make Cream of Celery Soup Vegan?
- In a large pot, hear the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sauté for 6 to 7 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
- Add the celery, and sauté for 5 more minutes over medium heat.
- Pout in the vegetable stock, and add the salt and pepper. Stir well to combine. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes until celery has softened.
- Add the coconut milk, and using an immersion blender, puree the soup into desired consistency (I like it fully creamy, but you can leave a few pieces of celery in there for texture if you like).
- Serve hot, or save and use in recipes that call for cream of celery soup. Enjoy!
Immersion Blenders for Creamy Sauces & Soups
I’ve owned a few hand-held blenders, but my immersion blender is definitely the best one I’ve had. This high-speed blender will blend even the toughest of ingredients (like pepper seeds!) into pulp.
I prefer using my immersion blender for recipes like this sauce, as it’s much easier to manage than transferring all the ingredients to a stand blender. This is definitely one kitchen appliance we use on a weekly basis.
