Ingredients
- 3 cups black beans cooked, divided
- 1 carrot grated
- 1 cup chicken broth can substitute vegetable broth, fat free
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sour cream plus more for garnish, fat free
- 1/2 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. chili powder
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- cilantro for garnish
- scallion for garnish
Instructions
- Reserve 1/2 cup of the whole black beans outside of the pot.
- Bring the remaining beans, chicken broth, water, carrot, cumin, chili powder, and garlic powder to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- After about five minutes, reduce the heat to low and transfer the contents of the pot to a blender. Hold the lid tight (the heat from the soup tends to build pressure inside the blender) and pulse the contents until smooth. Alternatively, you can purée the beans directly in the pot with an immersion blender.
- Return the mixture to the pot and add the reserved whole beans back in (this gives the soup some texture).
- Stir in half a cup of sour cream until incorporated.
- Serve topped with a dollop of sour cream, chopped scallions, and a sprinkling of cilantro.

Notes
- Add 1 hour and 40 minutes to the time if you haven't already cooked the black beans.
- To store your Creamy Black Bean Soup, let it cool completely and transfer it to an airtight container. It will stay good in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To freeze, place the leftovers in a freezer-safe container, leaving space for expansion, and freeze for up to 3 months.
- To reheat, thaw overnight in the fridge if frozen, then warm on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
