Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces portobello mushrooms (or baby bella mushrooms) diced
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
Instructions
- Add the butter to a large skillet on the stove over medium-high heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add the diced mushrooms, salt, pepper, and thyme, cook for 5-6 minutes.
- Add the garlic and nutmeg to the skillet and cook for 1 minute.
- Sprinkle the cornstarch over the mushrooms and add the vegetable broth to the skillet, simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Reduce the heat on the stove to medium-low and add the half-and-half to the skillet.
- Simmer for 6-8 minutes, then serve.
Notes
- This recipe makes approximately 2 cups, or 16 ounces, of soup. To double the recipe, simply hover over the “servings” above and increase it from 16 ounces, to 32 ounces. The ingredients in the recipe card will automatically update to reflect the increase in the recipe.
- To make the soup thicker and more creamy, replace the half and half with heavy cream.
- To make this soup vegan and dairy-free, you can use canned coconut cream instead of the half and half, and replace the butter with olive oil. While the soup will have a slightly different flavor, it’s still delicious and it’s now dairy free!
- If you prefer the soup without the chunks of mushrooms, use an immersion blender to puree the soup after it’s fully prepared to make a creamy mushroom soup.
- Refer to the blog post for how to use this soup, to replace canned condensed cream of mushroom soup, in green bean casserole, on pork chops or on chicken.
