Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 Cups Frozen Broccoli
  • ½ Medium Yellow Onion chopped
  • 3 Tablespoons Oat Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Nutritional Yeast optional
  • 2 Teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 2 Cups Non-Dairy Milk
  • 2 Cups Vegetable Broth
  • 1 Cup Shredded Carrots
  • 1 Medium Carrot whole
  • ¼ Cup Nut Butter
  • ½ Cup Non-Dairy Yogurt or Non-Dairy Cream Cheese
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Microwave the frozen broccoli according to the package instructions. When cool enough to handle, finely chop the broccoli.
  • Sauté the onion in a large pot until soft, 3-5 minutes. Use a splash of the vegetable broth to prevent sticking.
  • Add the flour, nutritional yeast, and garlic powder. Stir to coat.
  • Add the non-dairy milk, vegetable broth, shredded carrots, whole carrot, and nut butter. Bring to a simmer and let the carrots cook for 5 minutes until soft.
  • Remove half the mixture, making sure to remove the whole carrot, and transfer to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth. Then transfer the mixture back to the pot.
  • Add the broccoli. Cook 3-5 minutes, until the entire soup is warm.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the yogurt and lemon juice. Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired. Enjoy!
