Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups pumpkin, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vegetables: Peel and dice the pumpkin into cubes. Chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves to have them ready for cooking.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until they soften and become fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  3. Cook Pumpkin: Add the diced pumpkin to the pot, stirring occasionally. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes until the pumpkin is tender.
  4. Blend Soup: Using an immersion blender directly in the pot or transferring to a countertop blender in batches, blend the soup until completely smooth and creamy.
  5. Season and Serve: Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat through if needed, then serve warm, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

  • Use sugar pumpkin or other sweet varieties for a naturally sweeter flavor.
  • For a richer texture, add a splash of coconut milk or plant-based cream before blending.
  • You can roast the pumpkin beforehand for deeper flavor before cooking it with broth.
  • Adjust consistency by adding more or less vegetable broth according to preference.
  • This soup keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and freezes nicely for up to 3 months.
