⏲ How to make pumpkin soup with canned pumpkin

This is an overview of the recipe’s instructions. The full instructions can be found in the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

  • Simmer: Simmer the ingredients on the stovetop in a large pot.
  • Blend: Using an immersion blender, pulse the soup until all of the ingredients are well-combined. (Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor, blend, and then pour back into the pot.)
  • Simmer Again: Cover the pot with a lid and simmer again.
  • Serve: Serve in bowls and top with desired garnishes.

👉 Ingredient substitution suggestions

  • Canned Pumpkin Puree: You can follow these instructions and make your own pumpkin puree using fresh pumpkin with a few extra steps. Pumpkin pie filling is not a substitute here.
  • Heavy Whipping Cream: To make this recipe dairy-free, substitute canned coconut milk for heavy cream at a 1:1 ratio. So long as you also use vegetable broth (and not chicken broth), this substitution will yield the recipe to also being vegan.
  • No-Sugar-Added SunButter: If you can eat nuts, use unsweetened peanut butter or unsweetened almond butter instead.
  • Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener: Brown sugar can be used here. If you want the recipe to be low-carb but don’t want to use monk fruit sweetener, use 3 teaspoons of allulose instead.

✨ Variations

  • Boost the nutrient density by including some cubed butternut squash (note that this addition will require a little extra simmering time before blending the soup).
  • Add a touch of heat by sprinkling in some ground cayenne pepper.
  • Stir in a small amount of maple syrup for some additional added sweetness.
  • Add in another level of lightly sweet flavors by garnishing each bowl with pumpkin pie spice.
  • Sprinkle crispy bacon crumbles atop each bowl for some added protein and texture.
  • Garnish each bowl with shredded Parmesan cheese.

〰️ How to serve

  • Serve as a side to these baked chicken thighs.
  • Serve with homemade bread or naan.
  • Serve alongside a roasted whole cauliflower.
  • Round out a perfectly fall-inspired meal and serve with sheet pan butternut squash and bacon.

💬 FAQs

Do I have to use an immersion blender?

No, I have made this recipe several times without an immersion blender. You can, instead, use a blender or food processor. You’ll just pour the simmered ingredients into the blender or food processor, pulse, and then pour back into the pot to simmer again.

How should the soup be refrigerated and reheated?

Store it in an airtight container in the fridge and eat within 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat until warmed or microwave in a bowl for 60-90 seconds, depending on the wattage of your microwave.

Can I freeze canned pumpkin soup?

Yes! This freezes really well. Once the prepared soup has cooled off, transfer it to an airtight container, place in the freezer, and freeze for up to 6 months. Once you’re ready to eat, run hot water over the outside of the container to dislodge it then add the frozen soup to a pot and heat on the stovetop until warmed throughout.
