I bought a big pumpkin... I roasted said pumpkin 🎃 now I have come to pray for a recipe from the soup goddess 🍲🙇♀️
it's a lot of pumpkin and I only know one pumpkin soup recipe...
Omg you almost cannot go wrong with like any pumpkin soup recipe!!!! I haven't made pumpkin soup in a hot minute but I always do it pretty similar to a butternut squash soup!!
Hoping I'm not forgetting any steps but here's my usual:
Chop one medium white or yellow onion per pound of pumpkin and grate 3-5 cloves of garlic
Cook those on medium heat in some olive oil for a couple mins
Add in whatever spices sound good to you. Usually for me it's salt and pepper to taste, like 1/4-1/8 teaspoon ginger, a handful of thyme, and either cumin or cayenne or both (1/2-1/4 teaspoon per pound of pumpkin). I will come back and add more in later if I feel like the soup is missing something.
Cook for 30 seconds to a min.
Plop in the pumpkin, veggie or chicken broth (like 2 cups per pound of pumpkin) and coconut milk (realizing I never measure this I just do it on vibes?? Usually like 1/4-1/2 a can maybe but if the vibes tell u more do more)
Add in maple syrup!! Like 1-2 tablespoons depending on how sweet you like the soup to be.
Cook for 15-20 min, then blend!
Taste it, see if it needs more spices, put more in if needed.
And then garnish with the rest of your coconut milk and anything else fancy u wanna put on there and voila. Good soup.
