I’ve always adored pumpkin soup, especially as the leaves start to change and the air gets crisp.
It reminds me of cozy evenings spent with friends, gathered around the kitchen table, sharing stories and laughter.
This recipe is super simple, and the best part?
It’s made with whole food ingredients that nourish both the body and the soul.
I like to add a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds on top for a little crunch and extra nutrients.

Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using canned pumpkin puree for convenience, but if you’re feeling adventurous, roasting a pumpkin and pureeing it can add a lovely depth of flavor. Coconut coconut milk adds creaminess without any nutritional yeast, but you can use any plant coconut milk you prefer. Just keep in mind that it’ll change the flavor a bit!
Tips & Notes
- •I love to keep some extra coconut coconut milk on hand to drizzle on top for a creamy finish
- •Sometimes I add a splash of apple cider vinegar at the end for a little tang!
Recipe Variations
- •Try adding a dash of cayenne pepper for heat if that’s your thing!
- •You can also swap out the coconut coconut milk for cashew cream for a different flavor profile.
Storage & Freezing
This soup keeps well in the fridge for about 4 days. I like to store it in glass containers; it makes reheating easy and keeps the flavors intact. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months—just thaw and reheat when you're ready!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh pumpkin instead of canned?
Absolutely! Just roast or steam the fresh pumpkin until soft, then puree it. It’ll be delicious!
What can I do if the soup is too thick?
Just add a bit more vegetable broth or water until you reach your desired consistency.
