Heat the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat and sautΓ© the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.
In the crockpot, combine the pumpkin puree, sautΓ©ed onions and garlic, chicken or vegetable broth, chopped sage leaves, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper.
Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.
Set the crockpot to low heat and cook for 4-5 hours, stirring occasionally.
Just before serving, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. If you donβt have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a countertop blender in batches and blend until smooth.
Stir in the heavy cream and allow it to warm through for 10-15 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Serve warm, garnished with roasted pumpkin seeds if desired.
