Vegan Zucchini Soup

Vegan zucchini soup topped with vegan parmesan and a sprig of fresh thyme in a white bowl.

So I was sceptical about this vegan zucchini soup.

I freely admit I thought it might be weird to have a soup made out of zucchini.

I was so very wrong. 

Zucchinis in a soup is a terrific idea. The resulting soup is so creamy and delicious you’ll want to make it often. 

And you know what else is great? It’s ready in around 30 minutes from start to finish.

How to make vegan zucchini soup

This is a super simple 9-ingredient recipe (excluding salt and pepper) requiring minimal preparation. 

You fry up some onions and garlic with olive oil and some dried herbs, then you add in your sliced zucchinis and toss up with the onions. 

Then you add in some vegetable stock and a can of coconut cream. 

Bring it to the boil and then let it simmer (covered) until the zucchinis are softened. I found this to be really fast, my zucchinis were softened in about 10 minutes! But when Jaye re-tested the recipe he cooked it in a different pot and it took a bit longer (15 minutes). 

So the timing could be a little different, just keep an eye on it and when the zucchinis are nice and soft, it’s done. 

Blend it up with an immersion blender and add a bit of salt and pepper to taste.

Serving your vegan zucchini soup

We have been getting some awesome vegan parmesan cheese made by a company called Violife. And a bit of this grated up over the top with a sprinkle of black pepper and a sprig of fresh thyme was divine. 

A sprinkle of homemade vegan parmesan cheese would also be great!

But honestly it doesn’t need any fancying up. It’s really great as is. If you like serving soup with bread, then this is also a great soup for dipping.

Description

Ultra creamy vegan zucchini soup. This simple 9-ingredient recipe is ready in 30 minutes and crazy delicious. It’s also gluten-free.


Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion (Chopped)
  • 1 tsp Crushed Garlic
  • 1 tsp Dried Basil
  • 1 tsp Dried Thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Dried Rosemary
  • 2.2 pounds (1kg) Zucchinis (Sliced)*
  • 3 cups (720ml) Vegetable Stock
  • 1 14oz (400ml) Can Coconut Cream*
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

For Serving (Optional):

  • Vegan Parmesan Cheese
  • Ground Black Pepper
  • Fresh Thyme

Instructions

  1. Add the olive oil, chopped onions, crushed garlic, dried basil, thyme and rosemary to a pot and sauté until the onions are softened.
  2. Add in the sliced zucchini and toss with the onions and spices.
  3. Add the vegetable stock and coconut cream. Bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover the pot and simmer until the zucchinis are soft and cooked.
  4. Blend up with an immersion blender if you have one or by transferring in stages to a blender jug and blending until smooth.
  5. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve with some vegan parmesan, ground black pepper and fresh thyme.

Notes

*This amount of zucchinis is 3-4 large ones, 5-6 medium or 9-10 small. They are also called courgettes in some parts of the world.

*Coconut cream can be switched for coconut milk but I do recommend the full fat canned variety.

*Nutritional information is for soup only and doesn’t include any vegan parmesan that you may serve it with.

    Wow! This soup is unreal and I can’t get enough of it. Instead of the Parmesan, I put Alfalfa sprouts on top.
