In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the pumpkin puree, vegetable broth, coconut milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15 minutes.
After simmering, stir in the maple syrup.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it is smooth and creamy. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a blender, blend until smooth, and return it to the pot.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with pumpkin seeds and fresh parsley if desired.
