Pumpkin Soup Ingredients
To make this fall soup recipe, you will need the following ingredients (see the recipe card below for exact amounts):
- Pumpkin purée: make sure you get the 100% puree and not the pumpkin pie mix. Note that if you buy organic canned pumpkin, the soup will not be as orange.
- Chicken broth: this serves as the base of the soup
- Butter and half and half cream: these add creaminess to the texture
- Pumpkin pie spice (or allspice), ground sage, garlic salt, parsley flakes
- Garnishes: parsley sprig, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon or cream
How to Make Pumpkin Soup
- Puree the pumpkin. Place 1 cup chicken broth and pumpkin purée into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Set aside.
- Mix the ingredients. In a large pan or Dutch oven, add the remaining chicken broth, butter, spices and cream. Stir to mix well. Heat over medium low heat, stirring occasionally until a low simmer. Stir in the pumpkin mixture and continue to heat on medium low until a low simmer is reached again.
- Add garnishes. Garnish with a parsley sprig, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon or cream.
