Easy Vegan Mushroom Soup
Vegan mushroom soup is rich, creamy and so easy to make. This healthy mushroom soup is great lunch or dinner and has the best flavor. This simple soup with mushrooms and fresh thyme is vegan, dairy free, gluten free, paleo and Whole30 friendly.
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook for 5-7 minutes while you slice the mushrooms..
After 5-7 minutes, move the onions to the sides of the pot and add the mushrooms, allow to cook 5 minutes.
Stir the onions and mushrooms together. Add fresh thyme leaves and continue to cook, at least 10 minutes.Note: You will notice a substantial amount of water has come out of the mushrooms, and they are reduced in volume by half.
Add the bay leaf, salt, coconut aminos and garlic powder (optional) to the mushrooms.
Add the tapioca starch to a bowl with the vegetable broth and stir well to combine. Add the vegetable broth mixture and dairy free milk to the mushroom mixture and stir well.
Allow to cook for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and add freshly ground black pepper to taste.
This soup is amazing the next day as well and can easily be doubled or tripled.
To make the soup creamier, you can blend half the soup in a high speed blender (be careful, it's hot).
To thicken the soup even more, you can add a can of drained white beans or boiled potatoes.
A mixture of cremini (baby portobello) and white button mushrooms are best. However you can use all cremini or all white button mushrooms if you need to.
If you don't have fresh thyme, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried thyme.
Dairy free milks that this works well with include: unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, cashew milk or oat milk.
Substitutes for tapioca starch include arrowroot powder or cornstarch.
