Gluten-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup Substitute
As Holiday cooking season quickly approaches, I wanted to share another version of my cream soup substitute with you. Today I want to share with you my Gluten-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup Substitute Recipe. This recipe was created to replace all of those canned condensed soups that our traditional casserole recipes call for.
You may remember that I previously posted my Cream of Chicken Soup Substitute recipe here on the blog. It is another super handy, and super delicious recipe that will change the way you make casseroles forever. Trust me, it tastes better and is better for you!
Anyway, as far as my Gluten-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup Substitute is concerned, I wanted to challenge myself to create a replacement for the original that was both delicious and accessible to everyone. I know “everyone” is a stretch but still. I enjoy a challenge. If I can create a recipe that is delicious, that is also, Gluten-Free and Vegetarian I have really taken it to the next level.
Things to Remember
When you start to make your Gluten-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup Substitute remember you are making a blonde roux. So, you want to cook your flour in your oil for 4-5 minutes to cook out that “raw flour” taste. Also, remember you are making a sauce. Next, when you add your broth to your roux it will get REALLY THICK like paste. And you will possibly think you have messed something up. DON’T. Just keep stirring!!! Add your oat milk (or other nut milk) and keep stirring until your soup smooths out. And remove from the heat.
