This creamy Curried Pumpkin Soup with Apple combines roasted pumpkin, sweet apple, and curry spices for a cozy, aromatic soup that's full of flavor and warmth.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté about 3-4 minutes, or until the onions have softened. Add the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 10-20 seconds.
Add the carrots, chopped apple and seasonings, cook and stir until the spices are aromatic (about 30 seconds). Adding additional tablespoon of olive oil if necessary.
Add the pumpkin and broth to the pot. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, or until the carrots and apples have softened.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Or transfer to a blander in batches, and return soup to the pot.
Stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper, adding additional to taste. **see note below.
Ladle to soup bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro, parsley or a swirl of cream.
Serve and Enjoy!
Notes
StorageStore this soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For the freezer - freeze soup in an freezer safe container before adding the cream for up to 3 months. When ready to use, defrost in the refrigerator overnight, heat soup on stovetop and add cream. **Note: if using bouillon to make the broth, taste before adding salt and adjust as necessary. Bouillon tends to be salty, it's always easier to add salt than take away!!
