Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh pumpkin puree (or canned, but fresh is best!)

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup coconut milk (or heavy cream for a richer soup)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Crusty bread or croutons (for serving)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes translucent.

    Add the Garlic and Spices: Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

      Incorporate the Pumpkin: Add the pumpkin puree to the pot, mixing it well with the aromatics. If using fresh pumpkin, make sure it’s cooked and pureed beforehand.

        Pour in the Broth: Gradually add the vegetable broth, stirring continuously to combine the ingredients. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

          Cream it Up: After simmering, reduce the heat and stir in the coconut milk (or heavy cream). If you prefer a sweeter soup, add the maple syrup at this stage. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Blend for Creaminess: For a smooth texture, use an immersion blender directly in the pot or carefully transfer the soup to a countertop blender. Blend until silky and smooth.

              Serve: Ladle the creamy pumpkin soup into bowls. Garnish each bowl with fresh parsley and serve with crusty bread or croutons on the side.

                Enjoy the Flavors of Fall: Sit back, relax, and enjoy the comforting warmth of this delicious autumn soup!
