Pumpkin and Peanut Butter Soup by DK on Nov 4, 2009
Nothing beats a warming soup. And with so many pumpkin based recipes that i have been making, it was inevitable that Pumpkin soup had to be one of them. I know I had made a Roasted Pumpkin soup long back, but then there are always variations galore. I had this one recipe from a neighbor which has such a creamy texture, that I had to make it. What more, it had this one ingredient which I am absolutely crazy about. Peanut Butter.
Along with the homemade pumpkin puree, it also has sweet potatoes along with peanut butter. They make a delicious soup and a different one from our regular affair. Its nutritious thanks to the way it is cooked with myriad flavors coming together. Try it for yourself. It will warm you up in a jiffy in the winters.
- Cook time:
- Prep time:
- Serves: 2 people
Ingredients
- 1 cup homemade pumpkin puree
- 1 medium sweet potato
- 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 tbsp butter
- about 1-2 cups vegetable stock or water
- salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- few chives for garnish ( or any herb of your choosing)
Method
1.
Chop the sweet potatoes roughly and steam them.
2.
Until soft. Instead of boiling, I almost always try to steam them.
3.
Blend it into smooth puree. You can peel the skin, I prefer them on.
4.
In a pan, melt the butter in low heat and stir pumpkin, sweet potatoes and peanut butter.
5.
Add the stock/water and seasoning. Stir until it becomes smooth and well blended.
Cook for about 10 minutes. You can garnish it with chives and sour cream.

I love this soup. Is it freezable? I'm going to have surgery and my friend, who is vegetarian and gluten-free (and hates to cook) will be staying with me while I recover. Would love any veggie/gf recipes that I could make ahead and freeze.

Maybe my sweet potato was larger, but I took nearly 3 cups of water to get this to a decent creamy soup consistency. It still came out delicious. Lots of pepper.

Tried this but found it a bit too bland for my liking - ended up adding red pepper flakes, curry powder, cilantro, green onions, corn, and some brown sugar. So I guess it didn't end up being the same soup at all, but it made a great base and was wonderful inspiration! :-D
