A comforting soup that blends sweet potatoes, apples, and coconut milk for a cozy, autumn-inspired dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 lb / 900 g), peeled and cubed
  • 1 medium apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or neutral oil
  • 1 tsp ground ginger or 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 cups vegetable broth (or water + bouillon)
  • 1 can (13.5 oz / 400 ml) coconut milk, full-fat or light
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: a squeeze of lemon or lime, toasted pumpkin seeds, or chopped herbs for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add garlic, ginger, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Cook 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Add sweet potatoes and chopped apple. Toss to coat with spices.
  4. Pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until sweet potatoes are tender, about 15–20 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat. Stir in coconut milk. Use an immersion blender to puree until smooth. (Or cool slightly and blend in batches.)
  6. Return to low heat, taste, and adjust salt. Add a squeeze of lemon or lime if it needs brightness. Serve warm with seeds or herbs on top.

Notes

Roasting sweet potatoes and apple with a drizzle of oil and sprinkle of cinnamon enhances flavor.
