Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • 1 can (15 oz) canned pumpkin
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • Parsley, for garnish
  • Pumpkin seeds (optional), for garnish

Instructions:

  1. In a 3-quart pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent.

  2. Stir in flour and cook until bubbly, about 1-2 minutes, to create a roux base for the soup.

  3. Add canned pumpkin, ground ginger, and ground nutmeg to the pan, stirring to combine with the onion mixture.

  4. Gradually pour in chicken broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps, until the soup reaches a smooth consistency.

  5. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer, then stir in the milk, reducing the heat to low to prevent boiling.

  6. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs until well combined.

  7. Gradually stir about 1/2 cup of the hot soup into the beaten eggs to temper them, then pour the egg mixture back into the pan, stirring constantly to incorporate.

  8. Continue to cook the soup over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is heated through and thickened, but be careful not to let it boil.

  9. Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper, adjusting the seasoning as desired.

  10. Once the soup is ready, ladle it into a soup tureen or individual serving bowls.

  11. Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor.

  12. For an optional crunchy topping, pass around a bowl of pumpkin seeds for guests to add to their soup servings as desired.

Enjoy your delicious and creamy pumpkin soup! ๐Ÿฅฃ๐Ÿ‚
