You only need a few ingredients to make this wonderfully thick and creamy pumpkin soup. The maple syrup and cream make this such a tasty, luxurious dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 small pumpkins (pie pumpkins work well here)
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) maple syrup
  • 1 quart (1 liter) chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup (125ml) heavy cream
  • Pinch each of salt and nutmeg
  • More cream, to serve

Instructions

  1. Cut the pumpkins in half and roast them at 300 degrees F for 45 minutes or until they are soft.
  2. Let them cool slightly, and then scoop out the pulp and seeds.
  3. Scoop the flesh into a pot then heat it with the maple syrup and stock until it starts to simmer.
  4. Use a potato masher to smooth out any big chunks, then puree the rest in your food processor or blender.
  5. Stir in the salt, nutmeg and cream and blend again.

Notes

  • Use pumpkin seeds to garnish the soup, or fresh herbs, or even add another swirl of cream.
