Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 29 oz pumpkin puree
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp ground nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
In the crock pot, combine the pumpkin puree, chicken broth, coconut milk, sautéed onion and garlic, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to mix.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 4 hours, or on high for 2 hours.
After cooking, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy, directly in the crock pot. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender and carefully blend until smooth before returning to the crock pot.
Stir in the maple syrup and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt or pepper.
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped parsley or chives, and serve warm.
