vegan pumpkin soup

This vegan pumpkin soup from canned pumpkin is fast, easy, and comforting! Coconut milk makes it extra silky and delicious.

Easy Pumpkin Soup from Canned Pumpkin

pumpkin purée

onion (chopped finely)

olive oil

garlic (minced)

vegetable broth

curry powder ((I used one with medium heat))

(13.5 ounce) can light coconut milk

maple syrup ((or use honey))

flour

Salt & pepper (to taste)

Sauté the onion in the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until translucent (5-7 minutes) - it's ok if it lightly browns.

Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.

Stir in the pumpkin purée, vegetable broth, and curry powder. Increase the heat and bring it to a boil.&nbsp;

Once boiling, turn the heat down a bit and simmer the soup for 5 minutes.

Stir in the coconut milk and maple syrup. Add the flour and about 1/2 cup of soup into a small bowl/mug/etc. and mix it until the flour has dissolved. Add the flour mixture to the soup and let it gently simmer for another 10 minutes or so. This will help thicken the soup a bit.&nbsp;

Season soup with salt &amp; pepper as needed.&nbsp;

Thank you for posting such great recipes!  I've made so many of them and love them all.  This pumpkin soup was delicious.  Whenever I don't know what to make for dinner I go to your website for inspiration.

This was a lovely nourishing soup.
Great idea of mixing in the purée into the stock.  I made it from roasted buttercup squash ( my favorite) and   
used herbs de Provence  because I didn’t have sage......it doesn’t really need much seasoning as all the flavours come together to produce a great taste. Yum.
A real keeper.

Followed instructions exactly. Make your recipes all the time. It was thick and globby and heavy. Looked nothing like your pictures. Seems like the recipe should’ve called for 1/2 c of pumpkin. Not a whole can.

Yes to this tasty recipe! First time I roasted a sugar pumpkin and it was so easy and really elevated the soup.

Used the canned pumpkin I had in the cupboard and it turned out great. I only added about 1 cup and it seemed thick enough. The flavors were divine.

OMG! A perfect soup for a snowy day in Upstate Idaho!
Love this combo of Ingredients. Sooo good!!

Low calorie, low fat, and very, very tasty!

This soup is delicious!  Especially good with the goat cheese!
Its on my "go to" list.  I highly recommend roasting the pumpkin if you can--well worth the extra effort!

This soup always satisfies, today I used roasted butternut squash puree instead of pumpkin and sake instead of white wine just because those were the ingredients on hand in my pantry. As said in the notes- i really could use butternut instead of pumpkin with phenomenal results🤓 Thank you once again for this healthy, cheap and easy recipe. Our quality of life has been enhanced so much! We realllook forward to dinner now! Thank you so much!

Fabulous Soup! 

I made this as I’m on a mission to slim down. Was very satisfying and my husband (huge carnivore) enjoyed it too! 

I didn’t have time to roast the pumpkin (I’m sure this would make it even more phenomenal) so I steamed it and then puréed it. Still added a lovely flavour to broth! 

I also made the tomato soup today, so will review that when it’s lunch time tomorrow! 

Hard to choose what to make from your site with so many wonderful options!

Hi Sylvia! Someone recommended this site to me for healthy Vegan recipes. So I had a look and was impressed! The first recipe was "Pumpkin soup with leeks and white beans." I had all of the ingredients called for and it turned out quite nicely. Only thing I changed was to add a handful of frozen green beans chopped small as I didn't have enough kale. However, most of the veggies were blanched and frozen, and I find that using frozen veggies makes the soup kind of bland and flavorless with no outstanding zing or zest! (I could taste the pumpkin tho!) My question to you or anyone is this: Do you have any tips on using frozen veggies in soups and other recipes? I know if I added yogourt or leak oil, etc to the top would be nice, but believe a soup should not need toppings, and stand on its own. I think your site has everything I was looking for, so I'm going to stick with you for now.  Thanks!

Hi Sylvia,
Thank you for your prompt reply. It was a great idea you offered to use the best base and aromatics when using frozen veggies. Next time I'll definitely try adding some fresh onions and garlic, herbs,with the frozen veggies. Maybe saute them a little before adding the other ingredients.  Looking forward to try many recipes from your site!

There was no fresh pumpkin left at the store, so I used ‘Honey Nut Butternut’ organic squash instead &amp; mixed it with a bit of canned organic pumpkin.  It’s sweeter than the recipe intended, but the end result is still delicious &amp; healthy.  Thank you!

This is my new, all-time-favorite recipe! I received an enormous butternut squash, leeks, and kale in my farm box, so I used my homemade roasted squash puree instead of pumpkin. I doubled the recipe and wish I had made a triple batch because all of the flavors and textures are just sooooo scrumptious! BTW - the uber-squash yielded enough puree for a double batch of this soup and large butternut and spinach lasagne recipe - two recipes that go quite well together. 

Thank you so much for all of your inspiring recipes!

Your pumpkin soup recipe is another winner.  I had kale left over from the squash and kale pot pie recipe, but had to sub canned pumpkin since I was out of fresh.  Followed your suggestion to start with less of the canned pumpkin initially and found that just a bit more than half a can did the trick to boost the body and flavor.  And it looked exactly like the photos on your site.  Fresh sage really shines in this dish too.  Squash and kale pair well in so many recipes and I love having options to use them in different ways.  Thanks again!

This cozy pumpkin curry soup is a bowl of autumn sunshine! Warmly spiced, luxuriously creamy, and made with simple, healthy, seasonal ingredients.

Pumpkin Curry Soup (Vegan!)

onion

butternut squash, cubed

ginger,

can coconut milk, unsweetened

pumpkin puree

Tbsp. curry powder (or less)

cumin

Dice onion. Peel and cube butternut squash.

In a stockpot over medium-high heat, sauté onion for 7-8 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. water/broth for no-oil sauté method, adding more as needed.)

Meanwhile, mince garlic and grate ginger.

When onion is translucent, add garlic, ginger, curry powder, cumin, and salt. Stir and cook 1 minute.

Then add butternut squash, broth, coconut milk, and pumpkin puree. Stir well and bring to a light boil. Then reduce heat, cover, and lightly simmer for 20 minutes.

Blend soup until smooth &amp; creamy. I highly recommend an immersion blender. (Otherwise you&#39;ll need to carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender. Please use extreme caution with this, as hot foods can erupt in the blender.)

Salt &amp; pepper to taste. Garnish with any desired toppings.

This Creamy Pumpkin White Bean Soup is cozy and comforting, perfect for the chilly days of fall and winter. Using canned pumpkin purée allows it to come together quickly and easily in less than 30 minutes.

Heat the vegan butter in a soup pot over medium heat on the stove. Add the onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Add the garlic, turmeric, thyme, ginger, salt, and pepper, and sauté 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the pumpkin, beans, and broth. Stir to combine. Increase the heat to high to bring to a bubble, then decrease the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes.

Stir in 1 cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup. Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth and creamy. Add additional milk if needed to reach your desired consistency.Alternately, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender to purée. Do not fill the blender more than halfway as hot liquids will expand. Work in batches if necessary.

Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or maple syrup.

Serve hot garnished with pumpkin seeds, if using.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
