What could be better than a nice pumpkin soup made in a kitchen appliance to warm you up? This creamy pumpkin soup can also be enhanced with cream cheese or coconut milk. A great way to switch things up from pumpkin puree, gratin, and flan!
Preparation of the vegetables This butternut squash soup is very easy and quick to make, because unlike other squashes, the butternut squash does not need to be peeled. Indeed, its skin is quite difficult to remove when the butternut squash is raw. So, there is no need to waste time removing it.
No need to worry, it won't be noticeable at all once the pumpkin is cooked. Therefore, it's important to wash it well before cutting it into pieces to remove the seeds. Next, peel the onion and then cut it into four pieces.
Preparation of the soup In the bowl of the mixer, place the onion quarters with a drizzle of olive oil and then blend for 5 seconds at speed 5. Then, add the pumpkin, the vegetable stock cube, and 700 grams of water.
Set the slow cooking function at 100°C for 20 minutes. Depending on the desired result, you can add more or less water to achieve a thicker or thinner soup.
Soup Seasoning Once cooking is complete, taste the result to season the soup according to your preferences. Besides salt and pepper, you can add curry and/or hot sauce to give spice and character to this flavorful soup.
Additionally, for even more creaminess, don't hesitate to add some cream and then mix for a few seconds to evenly distribute the spices and the cream.
Preparing the seeds The seeds can be used to enhance your creamy soup. This way, there is no waste, everything is consumed. To do this, collect the seeds by separating them from the filaments and any other remnants of the flesh, then wash and dry them.
Place the pumpkin seeds on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 180°C for about twenty minutes. They should take on a slight color but not brown too much to avoid burning. Once ready, sprinkle the seeds over the soup to add some brightness and crunch.
Serve this homemade butternut squash soup hot in bowls or deep plates. It is ideal for evening meals in winter, as it warms you up and is hearty. Also, for a more substantial dinner, enjoy it with small toasted croutons or pieces of bread.
