Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 1 large apple, peeled, cored, and diced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.75 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 cups heavy cream (optional)
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds, toasted (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the pumpkin puree, diced apple, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir to combine.
Add the ground cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir again to incorporate the spices.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the apple is tender.
Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a countertop blender in batches, blending until smooth, then return it to the pot.
If using heavy cream, stir it into the soup and gently reheat over low heat, being careful not to boil.
Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with toasted pumpkin seeds, and serve warm.
