Use in replace of  condensed “cream of something soup” – easily make it gluten – free by using gluten-free flour.  You can customize what type of soup you want it to be cream of mushroom , or cream of celery, etc.

This recipe makes the same as 1 can of condensed soup — around 10 oz.

  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup broth ( Veggie or Chicken)
  • 1/4 teaspoon of pepper

What To Do

Place a small amount of butter in a large skillet and melt over medium heat. Add onions + main ingredient ( vegetable) . Let the onions + main ingredient cook for about 6 minutes. Add Garlic  and cook for 1 minute. Set aside.

Add rest of butter to the skillet and melt. Whisk in flour and cook for 2 minutes. Slowly add in milk and broth. Add cooked veggies and bring everything to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 – 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper.

You can refrigerate soup up to 4 days in the fridge or you can “freeze” the soup. I freeze the soup in Ziploc baggies.
