Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups pear unpeeled is fine, chunks
  • 2 cups pumpkin peeled (about half a small pie pumpkin, or squash like Butternut, chunks
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • ¼ cup cream
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon cardamom
  • 2-3 T maple syrup

For Spiderweb (optional)

  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt optional or sour cream or heavy cream
  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk omit if using heavy cream, optional

Instructions

  1. Cut the pumpkin and pear into approximately 1-inch pieces. Toss with a Tablespoon of olive oil and roast at 450 (convection if you have it) until turning golden around the edges, about 25-30 minutes.
  2. Place the pear and pumpkin along with the remaining ingredients into a blender. Puree until smooth.
  3. Taste and adjust salt and maple syrup to your tastes.

To make the spiderweb (optional):

  1. Mix ¼ cup yogurt or sour cream with 1-2 Tablespoons milk to a “squirtable” consistency. Put into a squirt bottle with a small nozzle, a piping bag with a small tip or a zip loc bag with the corner cut out.
  2. Pour soup into a soup bowl. Starting from the center of the bowl, draw a spiral with the yogurt mixture.
  3. Next using a small tipped tool like a thin knife or end of a spoon, draw a line in the soup through the spiral starting at the center and moving toward the bowl edge. Continue around the spiral making more lines until you have a web-like design.
