Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups pumpkin puree
- 1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the pumpkin puree, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Sprinkle in the cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir to distribute the spices evenly.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until creamy.
Return the soup to the pot over low heat and stir in the heavy cream. Warm through but do not let it boil.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with roasted pumpkin seeds and chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve warm with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal.
