Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup Recipe (2024)

Has anyone made this dairy free? If so, did it come out good? Also, can you freeze or can this?

This sounds delicious. I tend to buy packet mixes and add fresh ingredients to it but hope to try this out soon.

I never had cream of chicken soup but I would love to try this recipe. This recipe certainly looks interesting. I will definitely attempt it in the near future. Thank you!

I have tried making cream of mushroom soup, but I have not expanded to cream of chicken soup. I am pinning your recipe to try later.

I love soup, but chicken soup is a definite family favourite. Your recipe is so wonderfully simple. I can’t wait to try it. My youngest will be equally excited , anything chicken related is always at the top of his list. Thanks for sharing this. It has been promptly pinned.

I’ve slowly been trying to cut processed foods out of my diet but sometimes find it so hard because it’s just easier to buy but you’ve definitely encouragedme!

We stopped using canned soup long ago, but all the recipes I found so far called for flour. Love your recipe, thank you!

I never thought to make my own cream of chicken soup. I use it all the time!

I love using cream of chicken soup in casseroles and dishes. This seems much healthier than what is found in a can of cream of chicken soup. Thanks for posting!

Great recipe! I try to make “real food” for my family, but fall short in this area! Love to see how easy it is! Thanks for sharing!

This is a great idea! I think I’d try it in my chicken tortilla soup to give it a little more body and chicken flavor. It would be much better than the canned soups. Thanks for sharing it!

Looks delicious! Yes, we cut out condensed soups also. They are so much better when made from scratch. I always make our cream of mushroom, but haven’t tried making my own cream of chicken yet. Thanks for sharing.

Great recipe! I like that you are not using flour in it. Have to make it this week:)

This sounds delicious! I have never made my own cream of chicken soup.

Looks good! We also try to cook more at home and buy less processed food. We love to try new recipes- will add this to our list!

Wow! It really is easy! I’m trying to be vegetarian so I went and pinned your mushroom soup recipe! These are the kind of simple recipes I need in my life! Thank you.

I try to never use canned soup, and this looks fantastic. I’m very much into healthy eating, but need some new recipes. I think my kids will love this, thank you.

I cook from scratch as much as I can. I started when my daughter was young and I noticed that she did much better when we didn’t eat pre-packaged, processed food. It is so easy to cook from scratch and tastes much better. I have not made cream of soups from before though. I will have to try that!

I’m hopeless at cooking ANYTHING (from scratch or otherwise) so I really admire your ability and determination to this — and your use of baby steps, which for me are huge steps!!

This is a great tutorial! I am not sure I am ready to make my own cream of chicken soup but maybe I will someday. Once my todler gets a little older. 🙂 Thanks!

Just out of curiosity and my complete inability to process dairy, how do you think this would work with soy milk?

I would have never thought to make this, but this is great, my husband and I just went gluten and processed foods free, it’s great, but not easy, thanks for the recipe, can’t wait to try 🙂

I think this recipe would convert my anti-nugget sister.

I am definitely going to grab this recipe! My husband loves this soup and your recipe seems alot more flavorful than the one I have! Thanks for sharing!

THANK YOU for posting this!! I have definitely been revamping our diet and I cringe whenever I pop open a can of cream of chicken. lol I am definitely going to try this! I really appreciate it.

Great post! I make soup often and I always make my own broth for it, but I haven’t ventured into cream soups yet!

This looks DELICIOUS! And easier than I thought. I’m sure it’s much healthier as well! Thank you for sharing 🙂

Great recipe. This doesn’t sound too hard actually, and doesn’t take very long either.

We ditched the cans years ago after my best friend took a flight with a scientist who works with cans and he told her he wouldn’t eat from a can. lol We both dropped them asap. I’m allergic to milk but I might give this a try with one of my milk substitutes. Hmmm…wheels turning. Thanks!

I love a good homemade soup and this one looks heavenly. Thanks so much for sharing your recipe; I will be trying it out!

Thanks for sharing this recipe! I am always on the lookout for homemade food to make rather than always relying on canned stuff.

What a great idea! I’m on a quest to eat and live cleaner and more from scratch, little by little. Funny how I never thought of even something like cream of chicken soup being homemade instead of from a can. I love your goal to “get women out of the box,” and will be keeping up with your blog! Thanks!

Thanks! I have been working on cooking more from scratch. Will definitely give this and the mushroom soup recipe a try.

I’ve had a lot of “cream of” soups over the years, but I’ve never even heard of cream of chicken soup before! That’s different. My father is a big fan of chicken-based dishes, so I’m sure he’d go head over heels for this one. Unfortunately I don’t eat chicken, but your base sounds great and I would definitely try using the same base for maybe making cream of mushroom! How come you use cornstarch, is there a particular reason? I always make broccoli-cheddar soup (a household favorite around here) and use flour as a thickener. Would be curious to know if there’s a benefit to using cornstarch instead! Thanks for sharing.

I love the idea of making homemade cream soups for recipes, but the convenience of the can is a hard habit to break. I’ll have to try making a large quantity and portioning it out to save. Do you put the mason jars directly in the freezer, or do you “can” them?

This is such a great idea. I had to forego making so many recipes because I quite using cream soups several years ago. They don’t have Campbell’s over here! I would try making the soup before and add to it but it ended up too much work. Not sure why i didn’t think to make up a big batch and freeze some but i certainly will now. I have this old recipe my sister-in-law used to make that was one of my favorites and now I can add it back to my rotation!

Saving this for later!! I used canned cream of soup all the time in America but it’s pricier to get here and also since we do eat less processed foods here I’ve really noticed how much better I feel cutting it out. I’m sure I’ll be trying this later.

This looks great! I bet it would be yummy to add to tortilla soup.

I try to cook most things from scratch, but thought creamed soups would bet too hard to replicate. Thanks for this recipe! Will be trying soon.

So nice to see a normally unhealthy soup turned into something healthy! Do you have any recommendations for substituting the milk for someone who is lactose intolerant?

Thanks for this recipe. I like to make a lot of recipes that starts with cream soups and gets expensive having to buy the cans all the time.

Yum! I’ll have to try that. How long does this soup stay good, though? Can you freeze it and keep it awhile like canned cream of chicken, or do you pretty much have to use it right away? Thanks!
