Ginger-Apple Pumpkin Soup is a warm, velvety soup that blends the earthy richness of pumpkin with the gentle sweetness of apples and the zesty warmth of fresh ginger. Perfect for cozy fall meals or a nourishing anytime dish.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
  • 2 apples (Gala or Honeycrisp), peeled and chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or coconut milk (optional, for extra richness)
  • Fresh herbs or pumpkin seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil or butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and grated ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the chopped apples and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
  4. Add the pumpkin puree and broth. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
  5. Simmer for 15-20 minutes until apples are fully tender.
  6. Use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender in batches to blend the soup until smooth.
  7. Return to the pot and stir in salt, pepper, and cinnamon or nutmeg if using.
  8. Add heavy cream or coconut milk for extra richness, if desired. Heat through but do not boil.
  9. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs or pumpkin seeds.

Notes

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree for a more earthy flavor.
  • Peel apples for a smoother texture in the blended soup.
  • Soup tastes even better the next day as flavors meld.
  • Add a splash of apple cider or cayenne for variation.
  • Top with crème fraîche or Greek yogurt for added creaminess.
