Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium (diced) yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 3.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 cups lactose-free chicken or vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup dairy-free sour cream
- 6 slices (crumbled) cooked bacon
- 3 stalks (sliced) green onions
- 1 cup dairy-free shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the potatoes clean, pierce them several times with a fork, and bake directly on the oven rack for 50-60 minutes until soft. Allow them to cool slightly, then peel and roughly chop. Set aside.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent. Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Sprinkle in the gluten-free flour and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. Slowly add the almond milk and broth, whisking constantly to ensure no lumps form.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Add the chopped baked potatoes to the pot, and use an immersion blender to puree the soup to your desired consistency. For a chunkier texture, only lightly blend.
Stir in the dairy-free sour cream, salt, and black pepper. Continue to cook over low heat for 5-10 minutes to let the flavors meld, stirring occasionally.
Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with crumbled bacon, sliced green onions, shredded dairy-free cheddar cheese, and additional sour cream if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your creamy, loaded baked potato soup without any of the lactose!
