Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree
  • 2 apples, peeled and chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  3. In a large pot, heat some oil and sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent.
  4. Add the pumpkin puree, roasted apples, broth, and smoked paprika. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
  5. Blend the soup until creamy, then stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs and freshly grated Parmesan.

Notes

For the best results, always use fresh, ripe apples when making your soup. If you want to switch things up, feel free to experiment with different spices or even add a dash of cayenne for heat. Remember, blending the soup until smooth is key for that creamy consistency. To elevate your dining experience, consider serving this soup with a side of crusty bread or a fresh green salad. Drizzling a little balsamic glaze over the top can add an additional layer of flavor that complements the apples and pumpkin beautifully.
