How to Make Apple Cider Pumpkin Bisque

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, sauté the chopped onion, carrots, and celery in a little olive oil over medium heat until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the pumpkin puree, apple cider, vegetable broth, maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded.
  5. Remove from heat and carefully use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy (Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender and blend until smooth).
  6. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy! Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
