Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk (any kind, including dairy-free options)
- 1 cup Chicken or vegetable broth (gluten-free)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the butter has melted, whisk in the gluten-free all-purpose flour to make a smooth paste (a roux). Cook the roux for 1-2 minutes, whisking constantly, to remove the raw flour taste.
Step 3
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Once the mixture is smooth, add the gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth in a slow stream, continuing to whisk.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring frequently, until it thickens to a consistency similar to condensed cream of soup (this will take about 5-7 minutes).
Step 5
Stir in the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Step 6
Remove from heat and let cool slightly. This substitute is now ready to use in recipes that call for a canned condensed cream of soup.
Step 7
For customization, you can add finely chopped mushrooms for cream of mushroom, cooked chicken bits for cream of chicken, or diced celery for cream of celery.
