    I have come to realize that not many people eat the “cream of” soups by themselves. They’re more popularly used to make other types of recipes, like casseroles.

    But those folks are missing out, because cream of mushroom soup is really good all on its own. And this homemade vegan-ized version is heads above the canned variety that you grew up on.

    This is the latest addition to my vegan soup collection, and I have a feeling it's going to be a new family favorite. We pretty much love any recipe starring mushrooms around here! (This creamy mushroom pasta is a long time favorite.)

    It's a simple recipe, packed with lots of rich flavor, and a delicious creaminess. This is comfort food at it's best.

    This vegan cream of mushroom soup is:

    • Rich, creamy, and comforting.
    • 100% plant based
    • Easy for a weeknight meal.
    • A simple one-pot vegan meal!

    Tips, Tricks, and Variations

    Make it thicker - If you prefer a thicker soup, you can always reduce the broth by about ½ cup. If you want to thicken the soup after cooking, make a cornstarch slurry and stir that into the soup. Then cook for a few more minutes to thicken.

    Make it thinner - If your soup somehow ends up too thick for your liking, simply add more vegetable broth until the desired consistency is reached. You will want to adjust the seasonings to taste afterwards.

    Use fresh herbs - Give your soup a boost of flavor by adding fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary. 

    Top with coconut cream - To give your soup a gorgeous presentation, give it an extra swirl of coconut cream when serving. This helps cool the soup down a touch as well.

    Try a less creamy version. - If you love this cream of mushroom soup, be sure to check out this other vegan mushroom soup as well. It's not as creamy, but is still loaded with fresh mushrooms and tons of flavor.
