Zesty Pumpkin Soup

Modified: Sep 27, 2022 by Laura · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

My family loves this soup any time of year but this zesty pumpkin soup it's especially delicious during cooler weather.

Zesty pumpkin soup

Today's recipe was sent in by one of our readers from Canada (thank you Shirley), and it's one of those quick to make soups using canned pumpkin.

It's delicious as it is, but if you have a pumpkin you can roast, it'll take the taste up several notches 😉

If you have children, you might want to tone down the heat a bit. Or, you can give them lots of cream or yogurt to cool off their little tongues.  I'm not really serious when I say that.

I actually split our soup in two separate containers and left out the spicy ingredients so the kids can enjoy it without any trouble.

  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
