How do you make Gluten-Free Potato Soup?
Only a few ingredients will need to be swapped to make this recipe gluten-free. Use gluten-free all-purpose flour for the roux, this needs to be a 1:1 even ratio flour with regular flour.
The best brands to use are King Arthur Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour, Better Batter, and Cup 4 Cup. Choose your favorite and use it for this recipe.
Along with the flour, cream of chicken will also be needed for this recipe. This can be purchased in a canned version at your local Walmart or Sprouts. If you prefer to make it homemade, use this Cream of Chicken Recipe.
Tips for Making Baked Potato Soup:
When making this recipe, a handheld potato masher will be needed to mash the potatoes in the slow cooker before combining them with the roux. This recipe only takes about 3 hours of slow cooking and an additional 30 minutes to prepare the roux.
The roux will be made on the stovetop and poured into the slow cooker with the potatoes.
Once the roux has been combined, next add the shredded cheese and sour cream. It’s best to leave the sour cream out for about an hour to come to room temperature so that it is not added in when it’s too cold.
We use gouda cheese for this recipe, which has more of a smokey cheese flavor. If you cannot find this cheese at your local store, use Colby Jack or Cheddar.
The full instructions are in the recipe card below.
