Pumpkin pie, <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/recipes\/coconut-flour-pumpkin-bread\/\">pumpkin bread<\/a>, pumpkin lattes, and more are everywhere this time of year. Some of us love it and some of us hate it\u2026 but I\u2019m totally in the love it camp! This made-from-scratch pumpkin soup recipe is a quick, filling, veggie-packed fall meal.<\/p>\n<p>Bonus\u2026 in a pinch, I can make this soup entirely from ingredients in my pantry! Pumpkin soup has all of the flavors of fall in a bowl.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-healthy-pumpkin-soup\">Healthy Pumpkin Soup<\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019m not sure pumpkin soup could be unhealthy, since pumpkin itself is loaded with fiber, beta-carotene, vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. Add nourishing bone broth and you have all of the gut-healing<a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/health\/gelatin-uses\/\"> benefits of gelatin<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n<p>This pumpkin soup recipe has just the right savory\/sweet balance from the fresh onion, apple, and sage. On a busy night when I didn\u2019t have fresh ingredients on hand, substituting a teaspoon of onion powder and a cup of applesauce worked just fine!<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredients-and-substitutions\">Ingredients and Substitutions<\/h3>\n<p>Pumpkin doesn\u2019t have much flavor on its own, so it needs some more spices to make it come alive. Along with the fruit and veggies I use garlic and sage. Other popular ingredients are aromatics like fresh ginger, cumin, and coriander. If you want more of a spicy kick, then add a little cayenne pepper to your soup. Or for a touch of added sweetness, try a splash of <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/health\/natural-sugar-substitute\/\">maple syrup.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This soup is also great to make ahead of time and reheat. The flavors taste even better the next day after they\u2019ve had time to meld.<\/p>\n<p>I usually use homemade chicken broth here, but when I\u2019m in a hurry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kf91trk.com\/44NXBB\/2CTPL\/?uid=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Kettle and Fire low-sodium chicken broth<\/a> is another good option. You may need to add a little more salt to the final soup for the best flavor. And if you\u2019re out of chicken broth, vegetable broth also works.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-kind-of-pumpkin-to-use\">The Best Kind of Pumpkin to Use<\/h2>\n<p>The first time I made this soup I used fresh pumpkin from the farmers market. Even though it was extra work it made an incredibly delicious soup. The kids and I made <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/recipes\/roast-winter-squash-seeds\/\">roasted pumpkin seeds<\/a> with the leftovers!<\/p>\n<p>Jack-o-Lantern pumpkins are not recommended\u00a0for this recipe. Instead, look for pumpkins labeled \u201csugar pumpkin\u201d or \u201cpie pumpkin.\u201d I find pumpkins on the smaller side (around 4 pounds or less) are usually sweeter. If you\u2019re not used to baking with fresh pumpkin, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/thrivemarket.com\/blog\/how-to-cook-pumpkin\">this post<\/a> explains the easiest way to do it.<\/p>\n<p>And if you\u2019re in a hurry, then canned pumpkin puree works too (though it\u2019s not as flavorful). Add chicken broth, some spices, and a swirl of coconut cream and voil\u00e1\u2026 pumpkin soup!<\/p>\n<div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-396566\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"396566\" data-servings=\"8\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-wm\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-intro\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-normal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"attachment-150x150 size-150x150\" alt=\"pumpkin soup\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Pumpkin_Soup-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Pumpkin_Soup-500x500.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-pin-nopin=\"nopin\" src=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/recipes\/pumpkin-soup\/?tp_image_id=494269\"\/><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Creamy Pumpkin Soup Recipe<\/h2>\n<p>\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" style=\"display:block;width:0px;height:0px\"><defs><lineargradient id=\"wprm-recipe-user-rating-0-33\"><stop offset=\"0%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"33%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"33%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><stop offset=\"100%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><\/lineargradient><\/defs><defs><lineargradient id=\"wprm-recipe-user-rating-0-50\"><stop offset=\"0%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"50%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"50%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><stop offset=\"100%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><\/lineargradient><\/defs><defs><lineargradient id=\"wprm-recipe-user-rating-0-66\"><stop offset=\"0%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"66%\" stop-opacity=\"1\"\/><stop offset=\"66%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><stop offset=\"100%\" stop-opacity=\"0\"\/><\/lineargradient><\/defs><\/svg><\/p>\n<p>This easy pumpkin soup  is yummy, super easy to make, and kid-approved!
