Equipment
- Kitchen Knife
- Stock Pot
- Immersion Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup white button mushrooms sliced
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar or white wine
- ¼ cup flour or any substitute you like
- 3 cups chicken broth low sodium, or vegetable stock
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 2 cups almond milk
Instructions
Stovetop:
- Sauté mushrooms over medium heat with oil until tender. 1 cup white button mushrooms, 2 tsp olive oil
- Add balsamic vinegar and flour (or flour substitute). Allow a few minutes to cook, stirring as it thickens to avoid sticking or clumping. 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, ¼ cup flour
- Add the mushroom mixture to a large pot over medium-high heat, then pour the vegetable or chicken stock in. 3 cups chicken broth
- Add the almond milk and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and continue to cook at a simmer or low boil over medium-low heat for 8-10 minutes. 2 cups almond milk
- Optional: If you don't love mushrooms, you may want to use an immersion blender to blend this soup after it cools a bit. This will remove the large chunks of mushrooms.
Instant Pot:
- Spray oil into the bottom of the pot and then press the Sauté button. Cook the mushrooms and oil for 2-3 minutes, until mushrooms are tender. 2 tsp olive oil, 1 cup white button mushrooms
- Add balsamic vinegar and flour to the pot, stirring as the soup base thickens. 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, ¼ cup flour
- Turn off the sauté feature and add the chicken or vegetable stock and almond milk to the pot. 3 cups chicken broth, 2 cups almond milk
- Pressure Cook (high) for 2 minutes.
- When cook time is finished, quick release and allow to cool before serving.
- Optional: If you don't love mushrooms, you may want to use an immersion blender to blend this soup after it cools a bit. This will remove the large chunks of mushrooms.
