Ingredients

  • •2 lbs pumpkin or butternut squash, peeled and cubed
  • •2 tablespoons butter
  • •1 large onion, diced
  • •4 cups vegetable broth (gluten-free)
  • •1/2 cup heavy cream
  • •1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • •1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • •to taste Salt and pepper

Directions

  1. 1Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat and sauté diced onion until golden, about 8 minutes.
  2. 2Add cubed pumpkin and stir for 2 minutes to coat with butter.
  3. 3Pour in broth and bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes until pumpkin is very tender.
  4. 4Blend soup until smooth using an immersion blender or transfer to a regular blender in batches.
  5. 5Stir in heavy cream, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper.
  6. 6Season with salt and pepper to taste and simmer for 2 more minutes.

💡 Roast or sauté pumpkin until some moisture evaporates before blending soup; watery squash creates a thin soup that cream cannot fully rescue.
