Ingredients:

• 500g pumpkin, diced

To start, heat some olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and ginger, sautéing until fragrant. Next, add in the diced pumpkin, chopped apple, and sliced carrot, cooking until slightly softened.

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Stir in the coconut milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.

Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can skip this step or blend to your desired consistency. Adjust the seasoning if needed.

Serve the spiced pumpkin and apple soup hot, garnished with a drizzle of coconut milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon. This recipe yields approximately 6 servings, with each serving weighing around 350g. One serving is roughly 250 calories.

For a unique twist, try topping the soup with roasted pumpkin seeds for added crunch and a burst of flavor. The combination of textures will take this comforting dish to the next level.
