Steps:
- In 4-quart Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add apples and onion. Cook 12 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft but not brown. Add carrot and cook 5 minutes longer or until carrot just begins to soften. Increase heat to medium. Add flour and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly as mixture thickens. Add 1/2 cup of the broth, stirring constantly with wire whisk to prevent lumps. As soon as broth is incorporated (about 20 seconds), add another 1/2 cup broth and stir again until incorporated. Add remaining broth and the apple juice.
- Increase heat to high. Heat soup to boiling, stirring occasionally. Stir well and add half-and-half, whipping cream and bay leaf. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently 15 minutes. (Do not let mixture boil or soup may curdle.)
- Remove bay leaf. Add brandy, cinnamon and red pepper. Gradually stir in cheese until completely melted and smooth, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and white pepper. Garnish with parsley if desired.

[email protected]This is one of the best apple soups I've ever had! The cheddar cheese gives it a rich and creamy texture, while the apples add a nice sweetness and crunch. I also love the addition of bacon - it really takes this soup to the next level.
Arama Ash
[email protected]Cheesy, creamy, and packed with apple flavor - this soup is a winner! I used a mix of Granny Smith and Honeycrisp apples, and the tartness and sweetness were perfectly balanced. Definitely a new favorite fall soup!
