Creamy Pumpkin Soup with Croutons  - Title of the Recipe

Nothing beats creamy, warm pumpkin soup with spices and crunchy topping. I make lots of soups throughout the colder months, and pumpkin soup is one of my favourites.

This soup is full of flavours, easy to make and very good for you. Pumpkin and carrot are both great sources of vitamin A, as well as fibre, antioxidants and vitamin C, along with lots of other vitamins and minerals. Just the healthy boost you need during the cold season. This soup is also gluten-free, dairy free and vegan, so it can be enjoyed by everyone. You know some recipes should be kept simple and pumpkin soup is one of them. The natural taste of pumpkin is good enough that you need very little to make it delicious.

Top it with a swirl of pumpkin oil and sprinkle with warm crunchy bread and some cashew nuts.

Notes:

  • Do I have to peel the pumpkin?
  • If you are using Hokkaido pumpkin you do not have to peel it, the skin is edible, just wash it well. If you are using some other type of pumpkin, it depends on the type you’re using. Pumpkin skin is usually too hard to blend nicely, so I recommend peeling it.
  • Best pumpkin to use?
  • I love Hokkaido pumpkin the most or butternut squash. Do not use Halloween carving pumpkins (duh). They are edible, but not that tasty.
  • Storing pumpkin soup
  • Pumpkin soup will keep in the fridge for about 2 days or can be frozen for about 3 months. Just thaw and reheat it, If your soup is too thick add some water or vegetable broth to it.
