- ½ yellow onion
- 1-2 tsp extra virgin olive oil

- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 3 TBSP unsalted butter

- 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- ⅛ tsp ground cinnamon

- 2 lices whole grain bread
- 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
- 1 TBSP butter

- ⅛ tsp paprika
- ⅛ tsp salt
TASTY TOPPINGS - choose your favorites!
- a sprinkle of ground cinnamon
- fresh chopped parsley
- Sriracha
- Bacon (t-rex or vegan crumbles)
- sour cream
- chives
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400℉.
- Peel and chop you veggies, drizzle with EVOO, and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Roast on a lined baking sheet on the center rack for 30-40 minutes.
- Bring a medium pot to medium-low heat and melt your butter.
- Next add the flour, slowly, whisking into the butter to form a roux. Stir constantly while the roux thickens, then slowly whisk in your veggie broth.
- Add your roasted veggies and season with 1/8 tsp cinnamon and 1/8 tsp salt, adjusting amounts to taste as needed. You can also thin the broth to your idea of perfect consistency using a little extra broth! My husband prefers thin soups; I like mine thick! Both are glorious! Simply adjust seasoning to taste if you add additional broth, easy peasy.
- Blend soup using an immersion blender, or in batches using a blender or food processor.
- Serve hot, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon and crispy garlic bread croutons plus any of your desired toppings from the list above. This scrumptious soup is so easy to customize. Enjoy!
Notes
- For the optional garlic bread croutons: preheat oven or toaster oven to 350℉. Chop bread into small cubes, drizzle with garlic-spiked butter with a pinch of salt, and toss to coat. Top with sesame seeds (optional but tasty) and sprinkle with paprika. Toast until golden brown.
