  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Vegetables and Fruits

  • 1.5 lb. carrots, chopped into 2 inch pieces
  • 2 apples, peeled, cored and diced
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 inch fresh ginger, chopped into smaller chunks

Liquids and Oils

  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth, or more as needed
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for dairy-free option)

Seasonings

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Carrots: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray. Place the chopped carrots on the baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
  2. Roast Carrots: Roast the carrots in the oven for 25 minutes until they start to soften and caramelize.
  3. Add Apples and Garlic: Remove the baking sheet from the oven, add the diced apples and whole garlic cloves, drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, add another pinch of salt, and toss everything together. Return the sheet to the oven for 5 minutes.
  4. Add Ginger and Continue Roasting: Remove the baking sheet again, add the chopped fresh ginger, then roast for an additional 5 minutes or until the carrots, apples, and ginger are tender.
  5. Warm Broth: While the vegetables roast, pour the vegetable broth into a saucepan and warm gently over low heat. The broth should be warm but not boiling, then set aside.
  6. Blend Soup: Transfer the roasted carrots, apples, garlic, and ginger into a high-powered blender. Pour in the warm vegetable broth and blend on low speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  7. Finish and Serve: Pour the blended soup back into the saucepan. Stir in the heavy cream (or coconut milk if dairy-free) and season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat gently if needed, then serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with coconut milk.
  • Adjust the amount of vegetable broth to get the desired soup consistency.
  • Roasting enhances the natural sweetness of the carrots and apples, but you can also steam or boil the ingredients if preferred.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently on the stovetop to avoid curdling the cream.
