Apple & Celeriac Soup
I am a big fan of creamy soup, but struggle to order them in restaurants due to the amount of milk, cream and butter often used to achieve that consistency.

Apple & Celeriac Soup
 Celery root (or celeriac) and apple is a combination that I have recently seen on a lot of menus and found very intriguing. On the back of my recent obsession of celery root, I decided to attempt a dairy free version of the soup and am so pleased with the results.

Apple & Celeriac Soup
This Apple and Celery Root Soup is incredibly smooth and creamy and has the perfect balance of flavours with a slight sweetness from the apples and rich earthy flavour from the celeriac.

Apple & Celeriac Soup
This Vegan Apple & Celery Root soup is incredibly simple to make. Diced apples and celery root are simmered in vegetable stock until soft and then pureed in the blender until smooth. It’s amazing how only a handful of ingredients can create such a richly flavour and delicious soup. I like topping each bowl with a mix of finely chopped walnuts and thyme, or for a non vegetarian option, crisp pancetta would be delicious and add a nice crunch.
