Pumpkin Apple Curry Soup

By Feli Chic'Cuisine

This soup is wonderfully flavorful, warming, and nourishing for those crisp autumn days. Moreover, it's super quick to prepare and unbelievably tasty!

The best thing about pumpkin is that it has a really velvety texture in soup, and it's naturally vegan and gluten-free.

You can enhance the pumpkin flavor of this soup by roasting fresh pumpkin and making your own pumpkin purée. Here you will find the recipe for Homemade Pumpkin Puree. Canned pumpkin purée also works well for a quick soup.
