Creamy Pumpkin Soup

Guys, meet my new favourite pumpkin soup recipe. It’s super creamy thanks to the roasted pumpkin and a little help from coconut milk. It is gently spiced, and full of flavour. It is perfect served alongside toasted sourdough bread with a generous knob of butter. Oh my. This soup screams autumn!

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

  • Melt the coconut oil in a large pan,  add the sliced onions and cook stirring occasionally until caramelized.
  • Add the spices to the onions and stir constantly for one minute.

Homemade peanut butter in 3 steps 🥜✨😍 Roa Homemade peanut butter in 3 steps 🥜✨😍  Roast 200g peanuts at 180°C for 20–25 min, cool, then blend (add 3–4 dates if you like it sweet). At first, the peanuts will turn into a crumbly, sandy mix — but keep going! Soon it’ll be creamy and dreamy. Add salt to taste.  Store in a jar & enjoy for up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long 😉).  #homemade #peanutbutter #easyrecipes #veganfood #vegansnack #plantbased #veganrecipes #whatveganseat #crueltyfree #dairyfree #healthyeating #veganprotein #veganlife #wholefoods #veganfoodshare #veganlifestyle #healthyvegan #simplevegan #veganeats #plantbasedrecipes #veganpantry #oilfreevegan #cleanvegan #veganinspo #nutbutterlove #vegancomfortfood
