White Bean and Parsnip Soup is the perfect soup recipe to warm up this season. Low on effort and made with simple ingredients, it delivers big flavor, and it’s one of my favorite recipes to make during the winter and holiday season. Serve this creamy parsnip and white bean soup as a starter or a meal, topped with pepitas, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, and cracked black pepper. So good!
To make this soup, start by roasting the chopped parsnips, onions, and whole garlic cloves with olive oil, fresh rosemary, salt and black pepper until you get them fork-tender and nicely caramelized. Once roasted, remove the baking pan from the oven and allow the veggies to cool for a few minutes. Squeeze out the roasted garlic cloves and purée with parsnips, onions, white beans, vegetable broth, and lemon juice. Reheat the soup and serve.
To make the White Bean and Parsnip Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 ºF.
On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss together 6 unpeeled garlic cloves, 1 pound chopped parsnips, 1 sliced onion, 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon rosemary, ½ teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste.
Roast for 40 to 45 minutes until the vegetables are fork-tender and just turning golden. Watch closely, as not to burn. Once ready, remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
Into a food processor, squeeze out the roasted garlic cloves and add the roasted vegetables, 2 cups cooked beans, 6 cups vegetable broth, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
Pulse until smooth.
Transfer the puréed soup to a large pot. Thin with additional broth or a splash of water if needed. Heat the soup over medium heat, stirring constantly, until hot. Taste and adjust for seasoning.
Ladle into bowls and garnish with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, pepitas, and black pepper. Serve and enjoy!
