Once you make your own cream of mushroom soup you will never want to go back to store bought. Best part about this recipe is that it is gluten-free too.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces mushrooms, I like crimini
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (more if using unsalted butter)
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Melt half the butter in a pan, on medium heat.
- Add chopped mushrooms, salt, and pepper.
- Heat until mushrooms are soft.
- Add rest of butter and heat until melted.
- Stir in cornstarch.
- Once cornstarch is fully incorporated and mixture is bubbling, add milk, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring until fully blended.
- Cook until thickens to consistency you want.
- Use as regular mushroom soup.
Notes
If you make and save for another day, this mushroom soup will thicken to a condensed soup. You can then add another 1-2 cups of milk, depending how long you heat it and how thick you want it.

Yum. I love mushroom soup. The last time I made it (ages ago) I added some carmelized onions too. So good!
Oooo, great idea. I was also thinking garlic would be a good addition.
