    Vegan Celeriac Soup

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    This vegan celeriac soup combines fresh vegetables and apple for a healthy and flavourful lunch or light dinner. Perfect for the fall and winter months!

    Celeriac often feels a little neglected as a winter vegetable, perhaps because it isn't the prettiest to look at! It's full of flavour though, and makes soup quite thick and hearty. This vegan celeriac soup has a hint of sweetness from apple, a herby hum and is very delicious!

    Love soups and looking for more ideas? Perhaps you may like to see my parsnip and cauliflower soup and sweet potato corn chowder. Both so good for lunch on a chilly winter day!

    ⭐ Why this recipe is so good

    Thick and creamy. Although this is a dairy free soup, and we don't use coconut milk either, the celeriac feels quite creamy once blended.

    Healthy. Packed with vegetables, a little fruit and herbs!

    Simple recipe. Just a few steps to make this homemade celeriac soup, and all are easy to do.

    🍎 Ingredients

    labelled ingredients to make vegan celeriac soup including carrots, apple and vegetable stock.

    All the ingredients and their quantities are set out in the recipe card below.

    The main ingredients you will need are:

    • Celeriac - the ugly vegetables of the aisle at the store! Peel well and slice off any hard bits.
    • Apples - personally I find that red apples work better for soup, as they have more sweetness.
    • Vegetable stock - my low histamine readers will want to check ingredients if using a store-bought stock.

    📖 Variations to the recipe

    Add another apple. If you like a lot of sweetness, then another apple will work well.

    Adjust the amount of stock used. This makes a fairly thick soup, so add another half or full cup of stock if you prefer a looser consistency.

    ⏲️ Equipment needed

    Large pot - to cook the soup in.

    Ladle - to transfer the soup to your bowls.

    Immersion blender - to blend the soup. Alternatively, transfer batches to a food processor and blend that way.

    🔪 Step by step instructions

    Just a few steps to make your vegan celeriac soup and all are easy to do:

    Step 1

    Dice the onion, celeriac and carrots, and mince or finely dice the garlic (image 1).

    Step 2

    Heat about 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot and add the onions and garlic. Fry for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the celeriac, carrots, apple and herbs to the pot and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally (image 2).

    Step 3

    Pour the vegetable stock, apple cider vinegar and salt into the pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat. Cook on a very light simmer for 25-30 minutes.

    Step 4

    Use an immersion blender to blend the soup. Add more stock or water to thin, if required, to taste preference.

    Ladle into your bowls and enjoy!

    💭 Recipe tips and notes

    • Peel the celeriac. Remove the hard base and then peel off the hard outer layer.
    • Dice the apple just before adding to the pot. It will brown quickly, so prepare just before cooking.
    • Don't forget to remove the bay leaf! So easy to forget . . .
    • Adjust the consistency. Add more vegetable stock (or water) if you prefer a looser consistency for your soup.

    📋 Frequently asked questions

    What does celeriac taste like?

    When cooked celeriac tastes a lot like celery, with a touch of sweetness.

    How do you prepare celeriac?

    Slice off the tough base, then peel all the hard outer skin off.

    How can I blend the soup?

    This vegan celeriac soup can be blended using an immersion blender, or by transferring batches to a food processor.

    Hi, I’m Claire. After a diagnosis of MCAS I began to follow a low histamine diet, which has helped me manage my symptoms. Here I hope to show that a restrictive diet can still be full of flavourful meals, and help you enjoy being creative in the kitchen.
