Pumpkin SOUP
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (I love the Primal Kitchen brand) Enter my 10% OFF coupon code at checkout: DEROSA10
- One 4-pound sugar pie pumpkin
- 1 large organic yellow onion, chopped (Whole Foods brand)
- 4 large or 6 medium garlic cloves, pressed or minced (Simply Organic brand)
- ½ teaspoon sea salt (Celtic Sea Salt brand since it's organic + non-gmo )
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon (Simply Organic brand)
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg (Simply Organic brand)
- ⅛ teaspoon cloves (Simply Organic brand)
- Tiny dash of cayenne pepper optional, if you like spice (Simply Organic brand)
- Fresh black pepper (Simply Organic brand)
- 4 cups (32 ounces) vegetable broth (OWL VENICE or Kettle & Fire brand)
- ½ cup almond milk (MALK or Three Trees brand)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (Date Lady brand)
- ¼ cup pepitas (green pumpkin seeds by go Raw brand)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit + line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Carefully halve the pumpkin + scoop out the seeds (you can roast the seeds if you’d like, but you won’t need them for this recipe).
- Slice each pumpkin halve in half to make quarters. Brush or rub 1 tablespoon olive oil over the flesh of the pumpkin + place the quarters, cut sides down, onto baking sheet. Roast for 35 minutes or longer, until the orange flesh is easily pierced through with a fork. Set it aside to cool for a few minutes.
- Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add onion, garlic + salt to the skillet. Stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 8 - 10 minutes. In the meantime, peel the pumpkin skin off the pumpkins + discard the skin.
- Add the pumpkin flesh, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cayenne pepper (if using) + a few twists of freshly ground black pepper. Use your stirring spoon to break up the pumpkin a bit. Pour in the broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat + simmer for about 15 minutes, to give the flavors time to meld.
- While the soup is cooking, toast the pepitas in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, golden + making little popping noises. You want them to be nice + toasty, but not burnt. Transfer pepitas to a bowl to cool.
- Once the pumpkin mixture is done cooking, stir in the coconut milk + maple syrup. Remove the soup from heat + let it cool slightly. You can use an immersion blender to blend this soup in the pot. I prefer to use my stand blender, which yields the creamiest results—working in batches, transfer the contents of the pan to a blender (do not fill your blender past the maximum fill line!). Securely fasten the blender’s lid + use a kitchen towel to protect your hand from steam escaping from the top of the blender as you purée the mixture until smooth. Transfer the puréed soup to a serving bowl + repeat with the remaining batches.
- Taste + adjust if necessary (I thought the soup was just right as is, but you might want to add more coconut milk for extra creaminess/milder flavor, or maple syrup to make it a little sweeter).
- Ladle the soup into individual bowls. Sprinkle pepitas over the soup + serve.
- Let leftover soup cool completely before transferring it to a proper storage container + refrigerating it for up to 4 days (leftovers taste even better the next day!). Or, freeze this soup for up to 3 months!
