Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped, about 1/2 cup
3 cups vegetable broth
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin
1 1/2 cups skim milk
2 tablespoons prepared polenta, creamy
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4-1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 pinch salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Cook chopped onions until soft and golden brown.
  • Heat the broth in a good-sized pot, add pumpkin slowly, and bring to a partial boil.
  • Stir in onions, milk, polenta, honey, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, salt, and pepper (pressed garlic might be suitable at this time).
  • Make sure that the ingredients do not clump but are spread throughout the soup.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes or longer until all ingredients have been thoroughly mixed and dissolved and so the soup is thoroughly heated.
  • If at this point it seems chunkier or thicker than desired; use an immersion blender or a regular one to liquefy the soup and blend in the onions.
  • Serve warm with pieces of bread if desired.

EASY CROCK POT PUMPKIN SOUP



Easy Crock Pot Pumpkin Soup image

Make and share this Easy Crock Pot Pumpkin Soup recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Tina.G.

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 5h7m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 fresh pumpkin (doesn't matter what type)
4 -5 medium size potatoes (or for a sweeter soup, sweet potato)
2 chicken stock cubes (can be beef, chicken or veg, I just use it instead of salt) or 2 vegetable bouillon cubes (can be beef, chicken or veg, I just use it instead of salt)
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon really to taste mixed Italian herbs
2 large garlic cloves
3 small onions, diced

Steps:

  • Roughly chop the pumpkin - most pumpkins you can leave the skin on because the crock pot cooks over such a long period - and place in the crock pot.
  • Chop potatoes up into cubes, dice onions, place in crock pot.
  • Put remaining ingredients in crock pot.
  • If you don't want very thick pumpkin soup, add some water (careful - crock pots don't lose much water).
  • Turn crock pot to auto - I usually either put it on before I go to bed for the next morning, or when I get up in the morning for that evening's meal.
  • Pumpkin and potatoes should be very soft when ready for the next step.
  • Using either a blender or a hand held barmixer, blend until very smooth.
  • Serve with crusty bread, topped with grated cheese and a dollop of sour cream.
  • This soup freezes very well, and lasts a decent length of time in the fridge. I do find that it will need some water added if you freeze or refrigerate it.
  • For Vegetarian use only the Vegetable broth.
