Ingredients
Soup Base
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion diced

- 6 large carrots peeled and sliced
- 2 medium apples peeled, cored, chopped
- 4 cups vegetable broth

- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.25 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions
Soup Base
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened and translucent.

- Stir in the sliced carrots, chopped apples, vegetable broth, salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg; bring to a boil.

Finishing
- Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until silky smooth.
- Stir in the coconut milk and gently reheat. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Notes
After the first test, roasting the carrots at 425°F for 15 minutes deepened their natural sweetness.
Adding the apples halfway through cooking prevented them from becoming too soft and mushy.
When reheating frozen portions, stir gently to restore the soup’s silky texture.
