Creamy Crock Pot Pumpkin Soup is a perfect fall soup recipe. Made with real pumpkin puree and taste like a pumpkin picked from the patch. Cubed apples and real maple syrup add just a hint of sweetness.

This creamy pumpkin soup recipe is super comforting and warming - perfect for a cool fall night. I recommend making it with fresh kabocha squash, but buttercup squash, red kuri squash, Hubbard squash, or even butternut squash would work here too.

Pumpkin Soup

(4-pound) pumpkin (kabocha squash is best)

extra-virgin olive oil (more

sea salt

garlic

ginger

cumin

coriander

turmeric

cardamom

coconut

vegetable broth

apple cider vinegar

Sea salt and black pepper

Water (as needed)

microgreens (optional, for garnish)

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cut the pumpkin in half and scoop out the seeds. Drizzle with olive oil and pinches of salt and pepper and place on a baking sheet, cut-side down. Roast for 50 to 60 minutes, until very soft. When cool to the touch, peel away the skin and measure 4½ packed cups of the flesh.

Heat the 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, salt, and several grinds of fresh pepper and sauté until soft, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cardamom and stir for 30 seconds, until the spices are aromatic. Add the cooked squash, coconut milk, and broth and stir to combine. Simmer for 20 minutes, then stir in the vinegar.

Transfer to a blender, working in batches if necessary. Blend until smooth. Kabocha squash can vary in water content, so if your soup is too thick add up to 1½ cups water (½ cup at a time) to reach your desired consistency. Garnish with additional coconut milk, fresh black pepper, and microgreens, if desired.

Creamy pumpkin soup is the perfect way to welcome fall. It’s smooth, rich, and flavourful—and perfect for adding your favourite toppings!

Creamy Pumpkin Soup

pumpkin seeds

vegetable broth (or water)

onions

red pepper flakes

plummy tomato (chopped)

garlic (minced)

Mrs. Dash herbs

coconut milk

Pour water in a very large pot (so you don't get splashed when blending) and bring to a boil.

Place the pumpkin into the pot with salt, reduce the heat the medium, and add all the other ingredients except the Mrs. Dash and coconut milk. Cover the pot and cook for about 20 minutes or until the pumpkin is fork soft. Remove from heat and use your immersion blender and blend all ingredients together.

Return to stove on low heat and stir the coconut milk and Mrs. Dash in and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. This helps to thicken up the soup.

Remove from heat and serve alone or with toasted croutons if desired.

This Pumpkin Soup Recipe gives you an easy and tasty homemade pumpkin soup all made in one-pot. The slightly sweet, earthy flavor of the yellow pumpkin, along with added herbs and spices, gives this soup a satisfyingly sweet and savory taste. 

Easy Pumpkin Soup Recipe

pumpkin (- peeled and chopped, 250 grams)

onions (or 1 medium onion)

water

olive oil (- optional)

dry oregano

dry thyme

sugar (or regular sugar, optional)

black pepper (as required)

salt (as required)

bread croutons (- optional)

whipping cream (- optional)

parsley (or cilantro - optional)

Rinse, peel and chop pumpkin in cubes. Also onion and the garlic cloves.

Add the pumpkin cubes, chopped onions and garlic in a 2-litre stovetop pressure cooker. Check the notes section for cooking soup in the Instant Pot.

Now add ¾ to 1 cup water or vegetable stock. For a thicker soup add less water.

Cover and pressure cook on medium heat for 8 to 9 minutes. If you do not have a pressure cooker, then you can even cook the pumpkin cubes in a pan. Add water as required if cooking in a pan.

When the pressure drops naturally on its own in the cooker, then only open the lid. Let the pumpkin mixture become warm.

Then with an hand held mixer or beater, blend the whole mixture. You can even add the mixture in a blender or grinder jar and then blend to a fine and smooth puree. Do not blend when hot as then the mixture splutters.

Blend till smooth and fine. You can keep the soup slightly chunky if you want.

Cooking pumpkin

Now keep the cooker back on stovetop on a low to medium heat. Add olive oil. Adding olive oil is optional and you can skip it  completely. You can even add butter or sunflower oil instead of olive oil.

Mix very well.

Then add oregano, thyme and crushed black pepper as required.

Add sugar (optional) and salt as per taste. 

Mix well.&nbsp;if the pumpkin is sweet, then skip adding sugar.

Let the soup come to a gentle simmer till it becomes hot. Then switch off the heat.

Serve pumpkin soup hot or warm.

Making pumpkin soup

Enjoy pumpkin soup as a light dinner. I like to serve it with a slice of warm toasted bread or a baguette. It also works great as a side, pairing it with a mixed veggie pasta dish, light salad or grilled veggie sandwich.

While serving you can garnish the soup with some grated cheese, herbs, bread croutons, crushed black pepper, cream or all of the above. You can serve the soup hot, warm or even chilled.

Serving suggestions

You can make the soup a few hours earlier and refrigerate to be eaten on the same day. Reheat before serving and if required mix in some stock or water if the soup looks very thick. Reheat in a saucepan.

Any leftover can be refrigerated for a day only.

Warm the soup on the stovetop over low heat until warmed through or warm in the microwave at 30 second intervals, stopping to stir each time.

I'm OBSESSED with this soup! I was a little heavy-handed with the red pepper flakes so it ended up pretty feisty, but so delicious!

This healthy (and super creamy) roasted butternut squash soup couldn’t be easier to make. With the addition of caramelised onions and a generous pinch of nutmeg, it’s the perfect fall comfort food.

Roasted Butternut Squash Soup (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Vegan, Paleo)

(~750 g) butternut squash

tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil

onions,

salt & pepper

nutmeg

Pre-heat the oven to 390 ºF (200 ºC) and line a large baking tray with baking/greaseproof paper.

In a large bowl, toss the chunks of butternut squash with 1 tbsp of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Transfer the chunks onto the lined baking tray and spread them out evenly so that they form a single layer.

Roast the butternut squash chunks at 390 ºF (200 ºC) for 45 minutes - 1 hour, until soft and caramelised.

Roasting the butternut squash:

Add the onions with 1 tbsp olive oil and a generous pinch of salt into a large skillet.&nbsp;

Cook the onions for 10 - 15 minutes on medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until softened and caramelised.

Caramelising the onions:

Combine the roasted butternut squash and caramelised onions in a deep pot.

Add a generous pinch of salt, pepper and nutmeg.

Add about 2 cups of boiling hot water and blend (with a hand/stick blender, or transfer into a large blender or food processor) until smooth and creamy.&nbsp;

Add more hot water until you reach the desired consistency. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Serve the soup topped with some yogurt (use a non-dairy yogurt alternative to keep this recipe vegan) and a few crispy sage leaves fried in olive oil.

Enjoy!

Making the soup:

The roasted butternut squash soup keeps well in the fridge in a closed container for about 1 week. Reheat it on the stovetop or in the microwave as needed.
