How to Make Apple Potato Soup
- Sauté 1 medium yellow onion, chopped, in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-low heat in a large soup pot or Dutch oven for 10 minutes, or until soft and translucent.
- Add 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced, and 1 leek, thinly sliced and well-washed, and sauté for 5 minutes.
- Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and sauté for 2 minutes.
- Stir in 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and diced, 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), peeled, cored, and diced, 4 cups vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 45 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Thinly slice 1 medium apple using a mandoline or sharp knife.
- Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Arrange apple slices in a single layer.
- Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar and bake for 15 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- While apples bake, remove soup from heat and let cool slightly.
- Carefully puree soup using an immersion blender or in a food processor in batches until smooth.
- Return soup to the pot. Stir in 1 cup milk or half-and-half, 4 slices bacon (or bacon substitute), cooked and crumbled, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives.
- Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Do not boil.
- Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with baked apple slices, bacon crumbles, and extra chives.
