A classic recipe of Easy Creamy Mushroom Soup is always so comforting and delicious. This soup is SO easy and nothing beats a bowl of creamy homemade soup. It’s made using stable ingredients and is ready to serve in under 30 minutes. It’s full of thinly sliced tender mushroom pieces and has plenty of garlic flavor. One of my favorite combinations out there! I hope you enjoy.

How To Make This Easy Creamy Mushroom Soup?

I always start by gathering all of the ingredients needed in a recipe and weighing and measuring everything before I start to cook or bake. This part is really important and key in keeping everything organized.


To make this Easy Creamy Mushroom Soup you start by melting butter in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium high heat.

You add the mushrooms and cook until soft and slightly brown.

You add the garlic and cook until fragrant. Then you stir in the flour until mushrooms are coated.

You stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Then you stir in the heavy cream and let the soup simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Season with salt and pepper and serve with fresh parsley!

How To Store This Easy Creamy Mushroom Soup?

Store any leftovers of the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

Recipe Notes:

Mushrooms – You can use any type of mushrooms you want in this recipe. If using small mushrooms you can just slice them whole. If using larger mushrooms I suggest slicing them in half first and then slicing into bite size pieces.

Chicken broth – Instead of chicken broth you can use vegetable broth or water + 2 chicken or vegetable bouillon.

Heavy cream – Instead of heavy cream you can use milk, coconut milk, coconut cream or any type of non dairy cream.

Variations:

Mushroom soup with thyme – Thyme goes perfect with mushrooms and it’s delicious to add in fresh thyme leaves or 1 tsp of dried thyme.

Creamy chicken mushroom soup – If you want more filling to your soup you can add in cooked chicken pieces.
