Vegan Creamy Garlic Mushrooms
🌱 Vegan Creamy Garlic Mushrooms 🍄
These Vegan Creamy Garlic Mushrooms are a skillet of sliced mushrooms in a garlicky white sauce. No dairy. No cream. Coconut milk or cashew cream makes it silky. Chili flakes and black pepper keep it from tasting flat.
I love browning the mushrooms first and adding the cream after. If you pour the sauce in too soon, they steam instead of getting that golden edge. 💚

The Secret to Mushrooms That Aren’t Watery
Don’t salt them at the start. Let them brown in a hot pan first. Crowding makes them steam. When they’re golden, add garlic, then the cream. Simmer until the sauce coats a spoon.
Frequently Asked Questions ❓
Coconut milk or cashew cream? 🥥
Both work. Coconut milk is faster. Cashew cream tastes more like dairy.
What should I serve this with? 🍽️
Toast, mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, or as a steak-style side.
Can I use mixed mushrooms? 🍄
Yes. Cremini, white button, or a mix.

Notes & Tips 💡
- A splash of soy sauce or tamari makes the sauce taste meatier.
- If the sauce is thin, simmer another minute. If it’s thick, add a splash of broth.
- These are excellent piled on toasted sourdough.
- Leftovers reheat gently. Don’t boil or the sauce can split.
