No can needed. Make your own Homemade Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup from scratch in just 10 minutes!
Happy November, friends! That means it's the start of the holiday cooking / baking season! And what's a staple in a lot of those comforting casserole classics? That's right, that good ol' Campbell's can of condensed cream soup. Those cans used to be staples in my pantry growing up. But recently we realized just how easy it is to make them from scratch! Especially this Homemade Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup which can be whipped up in just 10 minutes! Game. Changgeerrrr.
Best part of this recipe is that it's made up of ingredients you probably already have! Flour, chicken stock (also super easy to make yourself!), salt, pepper, milk, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley.
Then it's just a mix of all of the dry ingredients with milk while the broth with the rest of the milk heats on the stove. It's so easy that even my two year could help mix together the ingredients. She's becoming quite the little sous chef. 🙂
Combine it all on the stove and let it simmer for a bit to thicken and then you're golden. That's it. That's all it takes to make Homemade Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup from scratch and free of the modified food starch and whey protein concentrate on the ingredient list of the cans.
Whip up a batch in advance for those holiday casseroles! Or freeze some to just have on hand whenever you need it.Now our Homemade Condensed Soup list is complete! I've got you covered for Cream of Mushroom, Cream of Celery, and now Homemade Condensed Cream of Chicken! And just wait 'til you see what I make with this! Stay tuned...

I used this recipe to make vegan chicken condensed soup by swapping the milk for cashew milk, the broth for Kroger brand vegetable broth, and added a heaping teaspoon of Trader Joe's chickenless seasoning! It is perfect.
Brittany that's so awesome to hear!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
