Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 0.5 cups heavy cream
- 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons sour cream or plain yogurt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Stir in the pumpkin puree, vegetable broth, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and maple syrup. Cook for another 5 minutes but do not let the soup boil.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or maple syrup to suit your preference.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with pumpkin seeds and a dollop of sour cream or yogurt, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
