Instructions

  1. Heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat in a large thick-bottomed pot such as a Dutch oven. Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onion has softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the chopped carrots, bell pepper, and garlic. Cover the pot and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until the vegetables have softened, stirring occasionally.
  3. Scoot the vegetables off to one side of the pot to make room for the ground beef. Brown the ground beef and break it into small pieces with a spatula before mixing it in with the vegetables.
  4. Stir in the pumpkin puree, diced tomatoes, black beans, chicken broth, pure maple syrup, chili powder, pumpkin pie spice and sea salt (the remaining ingredients) until well-incorporated. Cover the pot and reduce to medium heat. Bring the chili to a boil and cook covered, stirring occasionally, for at least 15 minutes. If you have the time, you can cook chili for one hour at a gentle simmer, making sure to stir it every once in a while.
  5. Serve pumpkin chili with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, grated cheese, chives, crispy chopped bacon, avocado, etc.

Notes

  • *Add broth to your desired consistency. I like very thick chili, so I use ½ cup but you can use anywhere between ½ cup and 2 cups.
