Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb 450g carrots, scrubbed and chopped
  • 2 medium apples about 1 lb or 450g, cored and chopped
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups 1 liter vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 cup heavy cream or coconut milk for added creaminess

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant (about 5 minutes).
  • Add chopped carrots and apples. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Sprinkle in all the spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cumin) and stir to coat the vegetables evenly.
  • Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until carrots are tender.
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, carefully transfer to a blender in batches.)
  • If using, stir in cream or coconut milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Reheat if necessary and serve hot!
