I meant to post this a while ago when pumpkins were in season. This is one of my favorite fall/winter soups, which I got from my cousin and it's delicious. It's an easy soup that serves 6 or more, but I usually cut the recipe in half.
Pumpkin Soup
2 carrots - chopped
1 large onion - chopped
1/4 cup butter
1 golden delicious apple - peeled and chopped (I've used other kinds of apples as well)
1 large can packed pumpkin (29 oz)
2 cans vegetable broth
1 cup water
1 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 cup light cream
salt and pepper
Saute carrots and onion in butter for 10 minutes or until soft. Then add apple, pumpkin, broth, water, spices and cook all for 30 minutes until cooked through. Blend soup with an immersion blender or in batches in a blender. Then add cream and serve warm. Enjoy!
