Healthy Pumpkin Ginger Soup with Sriracha ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #soup #recipe

Healthy Pumpkin Ginger Soup with Sriracha

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 15 minutes
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: About 1 quart of soup 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small onion, peeled and cut into large chunks
  • 2 – 3 cloves of garlic, peeled
  • 1 knob of ginger root, about 1 – 1 1/2 inches, peeled
  • 1/2 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 – 3 Tablespoons real maple syrup (more or less to taste)
  • 2 Tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 – 3 Tablespoons Sriracha hot sauce (optional, use more or less to taste)
  • About 1/3 cup fresh cilantro leaves (if desired)
  • For the top: chopped cilantro leaves, toasted pinons or pepitas & more Sriracha, for swirling

Instructions

  1. Put the onion, garlic, and ginger into a handi chopper or food processor and chop into bits.
  2. Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the olive oil, then the chopped onion mixture. Saute for a few minutes until the onions are soft and translucent. Add the pumpkin, broth, syrup, and peanut butter. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 – 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. Remove from heat, let cool a bit and blend till smooth. You can blend some of the cilantro into the soup if you want or just use it on top for garnish. If you are using an immersion blender, you can blend it hot. To avoid a big mess in your kitchen, if you are using a traditional blender, I recommend letting the soup cool before you blend it. When you’re ready to blend, put the liquid in the blender, then cover the top with a towel. Holding the towel on the top, pulse gently a few times, then let any extra air out. Pulse again a few times, then blend till smooth.
