A rich combination of ingredients including apples, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice combine to make this a VERY flavorful soup. A perfect add to your fall and winter dinner menu.
Peel and rough chop onions, squash, apples, carrots, and garlic. Cut celery stalks in half (for easy removal later).
In a large soup pot or dutch oven saute onions and celery in olive oil until onions begin to carmelize. Add garlic, season with salt and pepper, and saute for 1 more minute.
Add squash, apples, and carrots. Add chicken stock to slightly less than just covering. Bring to a medium boil and cook until all is tender.
Remove celery, add thyme, nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice, brown sugar, and season with salt and pepper. Blend with immersion or countertop blender until smooth. Once smooth, add cream and adjust seasonings as needed.
Garnish with frest thyme and serve with a slice of crusty bread.
- I use a 7.25 quart dutch oven and it is just the right size (wouldn't want it to be any smaller)
- Celery will be slightly stringy in your soup if you do not remove
- I like the flavorful nature of this soup, if you like more subtle flavors, half the spices and gradually add after that to suit your tastes
- Chichen stock should be close to covering but not quite, the ingredients will cook down into the stock
- This makes a big pot of soup, about 18 cups. We are a family of 6 so this works well.
- It tastes even better the day after you make it...
