Amazing Pumpkin Soup

Ingredients

• 12 cups chicken broth (such as Swanson), divided
• 2 cups chopped onion
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2 (29 ounce) cans pumpkin puree (such as Libby’s)
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons salt, or to taste
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper, or to taste

Directions

Pour 1 to 2 cups chicken broth in a blender; add onion, garlic, parsley, and thyme. Blend the onion mixture until liquefied; pour into a large stock pot.

Pour remaining broth into pot. Stir pumpkin puree into the broth; stir until smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until beginning to thicken, about 45 minutes.

Remove pot from heat. Stir cream through the soup; season with salt and pepper.
