Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh pumpkin (or 1 can pumpkin puree)

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 8 fresh sage leaves
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pumpkin: If using fresh pumpkin, slice in half, scoop seeds, and roast at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes until tender. If using canned puree, skip this step.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot over medium heat, melt 2 tbsp butter. Add chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent (about 5 minutes).
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add roasted pumpkin or canned puree and vegetable broth to the pot. Simmer on low for about 10 minutes.
  4. Blend Until Smooth: Use an immersion blender to puree until creamy. Adjust thickness by adding more broth if desired.
  5. Brown Butter with Sage: In a small pan, melt remaining butter over medium heat. Add sage leaves and cook until crispy and golden (about 3 minutes).
  6. Final Touches: Stir in heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls and drizzle with sage brown butter before serving.
