    This healthy Pumpkin Soup is packed with Autumn flavors and healthy root vegetables. And it is ready in under 30 minutes, perfect for those busy fall weeknights.

    Winter squash makes such delicious healthy soup. Loads of beta carotene and fiber. I use pumpkin for this one, but you can use butternut or acorn squash if you prefer.

    I like a little yogurt in mine (kind of borscht like), but you can leave it out or go dairy free if you prefer.

    Wishing you a warm and wonderful Fall.

    Print Recipe Pin Recipe

    Ingredients
     

    • 2 tablespoons olive or canola oil
    • ½ cup Vidalia or Walla Walla onions (minced)
    • 1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
    • 2 tablespoons flour
    • 2 cups fat free chicken or vegetable stock
    • 2 large carrots (peeled and diced)
    • 1 medium turnip (peeled and diced)
    • 15 ounce can pumpkin puree (or 2 cups cooked winter squash, cubed)
    • ¾ cups yogurt, coconut or almond milk
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • salt (to taste)
    • white pepper (to taste)
    • sunflower or pumpkin seeds (optional for garnish)
    • yogurt (optional for garnish)
    • maple syrup (optional for garnish)

    Instructions
     

    • Heat oil on medium heat in a stock pot. Add the onions and sweat them until they are translucent. Add garlic and cook lightly. Do not brown onion and garlic.
    • Stir in the flour and mix thoroughly to make a smooth roux. Add the stock all at once and stir to combine.
    • Add carrots and turnip; increase heat to bring liquid to a low boil, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Reduce heat and cook until carrots and turnip are soft, about 15 minutes.
    • Stir in pumpkin, yogurt, spices, salt and pepper. Cook until pumpkin and milk are hot. Add more liquid if desired.
    • Process with a hand held blender (or put in blender or food processor), making a smooth puree. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.
    • Pour into serving bowls, garnish with seeds, sour cream/yogurt and/or a drizzle of maple syrup. Sprinkle with freshly grated nutmeg.
