Ingredients
Method
Roasting Vegetables
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss pumpkin cubes and apple chunks in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, until tender and caramelized.
Sautéing Aromatics
- In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Combining Ingredients
- Once roasted, add pumpkin and apples to the pot with sautéed onions and garlic. Pour in vegetable broth and sprinkle in cinnamon, stirring to combine.
Blending the Soup
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes. Blend until completely smooth using an immersion blender or transferring to a stand blender.
- If using a stand blender, return the soup to the pot afterward.
Final Touches
- Stir in coconut milk for creaminess. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat for a few more minutes without boiling.
Serving
- Ladle the soup into bowls, top with toasted pumpkin seeds or a swirl of coconut cream, and enjoy!
Notes
Consider garnishing the soup with toasted pumpkin seeds or coconut cream for an elevated visual and flavor. This soup stores well for 4-5 days in the refrigerator and can be frozen for up to 3 months.
