Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp packed brown sugar
- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
- ½ cup water
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 15 oz can Pure Pumpkin
- 12 oz can Evaporated Milk
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- Heavy cream and croutons for serving, optional
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and brown sugar, then whisk for about 1 minute, until the sugar has melted and the mixture is well combined.
- Pour in the broth and water, then season with salt and pepper. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Give it a good stir, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer gently for 15 minutes.
- Add the pumpkin, evaporated milk, and cinnamon. Whisk until the pumpkin is fully incorporated and the soup is smooth.
- Continue cooking over low heat for another 5 minutes, whisking occasionally to keep the soup smooth and evenly heated.
- Ladle the pumpkin soup into bowls and, if desired, finish each serving with a drizzle of heavy cream and a handful of croutons.
