    Preparation Steps

    1

    Peel the pumpkin, and cut it into smaller pieces. Finely chop the onion and garlic.

    2

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion for 3-4 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for another minute.

    3

    Add the pumpkin pieces, pour in the vegetable broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender.

    4

    While the soup is simmering, prepare the herb croutons. Dice the baguette into small cubes, toss with olive oil and the herb mix. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

    5

    Once the pumpkin is cooked, blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender, or transfer it to a regular blender.

    6

    Add the coconut cream, ground ginger, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes.

    7

    Serve the soup hot, topped with the crispy herb croutons. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
