Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

7 tablespoons butter, divided
1 small onion, chopped
2 ½ cups peeled, cubed pumpkin
¾ cup peeled, cubed potatoes
1 ½ cups chicken broth
¾ cup milk
salt to taste
1 pinch ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon sugar, or to taste
½ teaspoon lemon juice
¾ cup heavy cream
3 slices Italian bread, cubed

Steps:

  • Heat 4 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat in a pot and cook onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add pumpkin and potatoes and stir to coat with butter. Add broth and milk. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until potatoes soften, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Strain soup through a fine-mesh sieve. Season with salt, nutmeg, and sugar. Stir in lemon juice. Return to the pot and bring to a boil. Add cream and heat through but do not boil.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining butter in a skillet and toast bread cubes in the hot butter until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve croutons with the soup.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin, but this soup was surprisingly good. The potato and spices really balance out the pumpkin flavor.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover pumpkin. It's also a good way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
