Ingredients
- 2 15 ounce cans of pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup to 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup 2 tablespoons
- 1 cinnamon stick + 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups low-sodium veggie broth
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tbsp cayenne omit if avoiding heat
- 1/2 cup canned coconut milk omit if avoiding coconut
- 4 tbsp vegan butter
- sea salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add 1/2 cup maple syrup and a cinnamon stick to a large pot, as the maple syrup starts to boil then reduce the heat to a simmer, simmer for 5-10 minutes or until the maple syrup thickens. It should thicken to a honey consistency.
- Slowly stir the canned pumpkin puree into the thickened maple syrup. Add the veggie broth and all other spices to flavor soup.
- Cook over medium heat until warmed through, about 10-15 minutes. Stir in one cup of coconut milk (if using). Continue to cook another 5 minutes. If the pumpkin soup seems too thick, add more broth or water to thin. Keep over low heat until ready to serve. Remove the cinnamon stick. Once cooled, make pumpkin soup bowls. Serve with toasted bread and vegan butter.
