Artichoke Onion Cream Soup - Gluten Free

Recipe by Lois Breneman

It's nice to have gluten free cream soup on hand to add to chicken, turkey, beef, or pork, so I sometimes make a large Dutch oven full of it to freeze.

Start by melting 3 sticks of real butter.
Add 1 lb. gluten free flour to make a roux, stirring at all times.
Add coconut milk to form a thick sauce.  Stir constantly.
Add garlic salt, onion salt, celery salt, black pepper, pink salt
Add dried basil, parsley, marjoram, and other herbs.
Chop and saute' 3 onions and add to the roux.
Add 1 large jar (33 oz.) artichoke hearts, and the liquid.
Blend the entire Dutch oven of cream soup with a stick blender or blend it in a blender.
If you want a few chunks of color, after blending the soup, add minced raw sweet peppers or chopped pimientos (jar).
Add a couple jars/cans of sliced mushrooms, optional.
I also added essential oils (just a drop of two of each):
   black pepper
   basil
It freezes very well.

When using a Power Presser Cooker as in the photo, you can cook a roast in just an hour, and to add a frozen cream soup to the pot works out fine.  The pot also calls for about 3/4 cup of water, and it infuses all the flavors into the meat as it cooks.  You will need to add a little time for the pot to heat up before it starts counting the hour of cooking time.  Then it takes a few minutes to release the steam, but it's completely safe.  I love my Power Cooker!

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease nine muffin cups with butter or coconut oil. If desired pop some parchment paper muffin liners in as well.
2. Set aside 2 teaspoons of almond flour. In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining almond flour with the coconut flour, salt, poppyseeds and baking soda.
