How to Make Roasted Carrot And Parsnip Soup

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Peel and chop 1 lb carrots into 1-inch pieces. Peel and chop 1 lb parsnips into 1-inch pieces. Chop 1 medium onion into 1/2 inch pieces.
  3. In a large roasting pan, combine the carrots, parsnips, and onion with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Spread the vegetables in a single layer and roast, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden brown (about 45 minutes).
  5. While vegetables roast, arrange 4 slices of your favorite bread on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  6. During the last 10 minutes of roasting, toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender. Add 3 cups of vegetable broth or water and blend until completely smooth. Add more broth/water, 1/4 cup at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
  8. If desired, return the soup to a pot on medium-low heat and gently reheat.
  9. Ladle soup into bowls and serve immediately with the olive oil toast.
