Creating Creamy Gluten Free Potato Soup is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Sauté Onions and Garlic: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
2. Add Potatoes and Broth: Add the diced potatoes to the pot. Pour in the vegetable broth and season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Stir well to combine.
3. Cook the Potatoes: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
4. Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer it to a countertop blender and blend in batches. Return the soup to the pot after blending.
5. Stir in Cream: Add the heavy cream or coconut cream to the blended soup. Stir until fully combined and heat the soup for another 5 minutes over low heat, ensuring it doesn’t boil.
6. Taste and Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
7. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.

These steps will guide you in effortlessly creating a creamy, delicious soup that will impress your family and friends!
