In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted, whisk in the gluten-free all-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. Stir continuously to avoid burning.
Slowly pour in the chicken or vegetable broth while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue stirring until the mixture begins to thicken, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the milk and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer gently, stirring occasionally.
For the cream of chicken variation, stir in the cooked, shredded chicken at this stage. For the cream of mushroom variation, add the finely diced mushrooms and cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to soften.
Season the soup with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
Once the soup has thickened to a condensed consistency, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly. It is now ready to use as a recipe base or can be eaten as-is.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
