As the autumn leaves start to fall, there's nothing like wrapping your hands around a bowl of warm, comforting pumpkin soup. Made with flavor-packed ingredients, this easy microwave pumpkin soup is seasoned with warming spices like cinnamon and ginger.
Skip the canned stuff and make your own pumpkin puree in the microwave with peak-season pumpkins—it's a game-changer. Elevate your soup even further by browning butter for that toasty richness, and if you're feeling fancy, top it off with sour cream, pumpkin seeds, and fried sage leaves.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work— and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
