This rich and Creamy Pumpkin Coconut Soup made with pumpkin purée and coconut milk is packed full of flavor and ready in 20 minutes.
If you know anything about me at all, you should know that I am a huge lover of pumpkin! I have made so many savory and sweet pumpkin dishes like my 20 Minute Pumpkin Butter or my Pumpkin Ravioli.
I was so excited to make this soup. The weather was a cool crisp 50 degrees and the rain was coming down, so it just called for a hearty soup like Pumpkin Coconut Soup.

How to Make This Comforting Bowl of Goodness
Now, for this recipe, I roasted a small pumpkin, but you can skip this step to cut down on the time and just use a can of pumpkin puree.
Pumpkin on its own is not very sweet, so to add to the sweetness of this soup, I added a sweet potato and a couple of carrots as well. Those two veggies are sweet and pair perfectly well with pumpkin flavor.
Once the veggies are roasted, the rest is a breeze — just dump in a pot, puree with a stick blender and then enjoy! It's really that simple.
This soup reminds me of a Thai coconut curry, but without the curry. I love serving this Creamy Pumpkin Coconut Soup with toasted pumpkin seeds for crunch, and a sprinkling of dill. The dill really makes this soup pop!
