Darren’s Gluten & Cow-dairy Free Clam Chowder

6 cans of chopped clams (drain and reserve the juice)
2 8 ounce bottles of clam juice
2 small or 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
3 tbsp. olive oil
6 cups of diced potatoes

1/2 can (7 oz) Unsweetened coconut cream (optional)
4-5 tablespoons gluten free flour mixed with a bit of water (for thickening)

Cook the bacon, cut up and leave on the side for later.
Heat up the olive oil and cook the onions for several minutes until translucent (not browned).
Add the clam the juice from the bottle and the juice that was reserved from the cans.
Add the potatoes.
Simmer until the potatoes are fork tender, 15-20 minutes.
Add the clams, bacon, coconut milk, coconut cream (optional) and flour/water mixture.
