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.
Method
Chop the sweet potatoes roughly and steam them.

Until soft. Instead of boiling, I almost always try to steam them.

Blend it into smooth puree. You can peel the skin, I prefer them on.

In a pan, melt the butter in low heat and stir pumpkin, sweet potatoes and peanut butter.

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.
