Fall Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup

Recipe Description

As the leaves turn brown and the air gets crisp, this Fall Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup embraces the essence of fall with its comforting blend of flavors. The natural sweetness from sweet potatoes and apples lends a delightful balance to the soup while ensuring a luxuriously creamy texture without the heaviness of heavy cream. This dish is not just about indulgence; it’s a nourishing option packed with fiber and nutrition, perfect for a warming, low-calorie meal. Serve it up with some hearty whole-wheat bread or soft dinner rolls for a satisfying meal. 

To start, sauté the onions in a generous knob of butter until they turn soft and translucent; this step will give your soup a beautiful foundation of flavor. Next, stir in some curry powder and let it cook, allowing the spices to bloom in the hot butter. Then, add in your diced carrots and sweet potatoes, followed by chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to let it simmer gently until the vegetables are tender. Finally, add in the chopped apples. Purée the mixture until it’s beautifully smooth and creamy. The result? A cozy, vibrant bowl of soup that’s perfect for chilly days. Serve hot and enjoy!
