Vegan Corn Chowder No Coconut - Vegan recipe hero image

I remember the first time I made this corn chowder on a rainy afternoon.

There’s something so cozy about simmering a pot of soup, and the aroma that fills the kitchen is just magic.

This recipe is special to me because it’s completely coconut-free, allowing the sweetness of the corn to shine through.

Plus, it’s super simple to whip up, making it a go-to for weeknight dinners!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

Using Yukon Gold potatoes adds a nice creaminess to the chowder without needing any nutritional yeast. If you prefer, you can swap in other types of potatoes, but I find Yukon Golds give the best texture. Nutritional yeast really amps up the flavor—don’t skip it!

Tips & Notes

  • If I have leftover chowder, I like to keep it in a mason jar in the fridge for quick lunches throughout the week.
  • Adding a squeeze of lime juice just before serving gives it a fresh pop of flavor!

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes, I’ll add diced bell peppers for an extra crunch and sweetness.
  • If I’m feeling adventurous, I toss in a handful of kale or spinach near the end for some greens!

Storage & Freezing

This chowder stores beautifully in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just make sure to let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months—just thaw it in the fridge overnight before reheating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use canned corn instead of fresh?

Absolutely! Just drain and rinse the canned corn before adding it to the chowder.

What if I don’t have almond oat milk?

No worries! Any plant-based oat milk will work here—oat or cashew oat milk are great alternatives!

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it’s translucent.

  2. 2

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add the diced potatoes to the pot and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

  5. 5

    Once the potatoes are soft, add in the corn kernels, almond oat milk, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

  6. 6

    Allow the chowder to simmer for another 5-10 minutes to let the flavors meld.

  7. 7

    If you prefer a creamier texture, you can blend a portion of the chowder using an immersion blender, or carefully transfer some to a blender and pulse until smooth.

  8. 8

    Serve hot, garnished with fresh chives if you like!
