- 1/4 cup hazelnut toasted
- 1/2 pear cored and diced
- ½ cup cannellini beans strained and rinsed, canned, white
- 5 cups chicken broth (or vegetable) stock—less or more depending on your desired soup thickness
- ¾ teaspoon salt divided
- ½ teaspoon black pepper divided
- 1 tablespoon thyme fresh leaves, chopped

Notes
- For thickening this Cauliflower Hazelnut Pear Soup, I love using oats versus potatoes or flours. Primarily because it’s healthier and also because I prefer the oat-y flavor they lend to the soup.
- Navy beans or cannellini beans are further thickening agents of this vegan soup, giving it that smooth creamy texture without too many added calories.
- Usually, I also sprinkle some freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top. I am skipping it here to make this soup vegan and dairy free.
