Sauté the vegetables. In a large stock pot, melt butter. Add your carrots, garlic, and onion. Then add the seasonings. Add the stock. Scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Then add the pumpkin and stir.Simmer the soup. Bring the soup to a boil, and then reduce it to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes.Blend the soup. Transfer to a blender or use a immersion blender to blend it in the pot until it is smooth and creamy. You could also transfer it to a blender.Enjoy! Top the soup with homemade croutons and enjoy.
In order to make a delicious creamy pumpkin soup, you need to blend it. I find it easiest to use an immersion blender. It comes in handy in so many soup recipes. You can see my recommendation for an immersion blender below. That being said, if this soup is too thick for your immersion blender, it will also work perfectly well in a blender. This soup only makes five cups, so it likely can be blended in one batch. I share exactly how to make your own and give you three different methods to do it. Make this recipe in the oven, instant pot, or crockpot, and use it to replace store-bought pumpkin in all of your favorite pumpkin recipes. For this recipe, you will need two cups of pumpkin puree which is about what you would get from a three-pound pumpkin. If you prefer to buy pureed pumpkin, you will need a 15-ounce can. To reheat leftovers, remove just the portion you plan on eating. Place in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until warmed through. Always use your best discretion with leftovers. Thaw the soup in the refrigerator and remove it from the container. Heat it in the microwave or a saucepan.
