How to Make Autumn Coconut Soup
Creating a warm and comforting bowl of Autumn Coconut Soup is a breeze. This recipe uses simple ingredients to capture the cozy flavors of the season.
Let’s get started!
Step 1: Start with the Broth and Spices
It all starts with making the soup base. In a large pot over medium heat, add the vegetable broth, carrots, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt.
Bring this mixture to a simmer. This lets the carrots soften and infuse the broth with their natural sweetness. The spices, like onion and garlic powder, along with paprika and salt, create a flavorful base for our soup.
Step 2: Add the Pumpkin Puree
Stir in the pumpkin puree. Make sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not the sweetened pumpkin pie filling. The pumpkin puree brings that rich, creamy texture. It gives the soup that unmistakable autumn flavor.
Then, cover the pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. This lets the pumpkin meld with the broth and the other ingredients, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
Step 3: Bring in the Creaminess
Now, remove the pot from the heat and add the creamy coconut milk. Coconut milk can be sensitive to high temperatures and high heat can cause it to curdle.
So, when you add it away from the heat, the coconut milk can blend into the soup, giving it a creamy flavor, without separating into curds and lumps.
When it’s off the heat, give it a good stir to combine all the flavors and textures.
Step 4: Blend to Perfection
To make your soup wonderfully smooth, you can use an immersion blender right in the pot. If you don’t have one, a potato masher works well too. Puree the soup until it reaches the desired consistency.
Step 5: Season and Serve
Season your Autumn Coconut Soup with a bit more salt and pepper to taste. This step lets you adjust the flavoring to taste.
There you have it – a comforting bowl of Autumn Coconut Soup that captures the essence of the season in every spoonful.
So, grab a bowl and enjoy the warm, cozy flavors of fall!
How Long Will Autumn Coconut Soup Last?
Autumn Coconut Soup is good in the fridge for about 3 to 4 days, but at our place, it’s usually gone by then. I’m lucky if there’s any leftover for lunch or dinner the next day—it’s that good!
But if you want it to last even longer, you can freeze any leftovers for up to 2 to 3 months. When you’re ready to eat it again, just let it thaw in the fridge overnight before heating it up.
Remember to let your leftover soup cool down to room temperature before storing it in the fridge or freezer.
You can easily warm up any leftovers in the microwave or on the stove.

Autumn Coconut Soup Recipe Variations
Autumn Coconut Soup is a super versatile dish that you can easily tweak. With some simple adjustments you can really switch up the flavor.
Here are a some tasty ideas:
- Spicy Kick: If you enjoy a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños when you simmer the soup. This will give it a delightful spicy twist, perfect for those who like their soup with a kick.
- Nutty Crunch: To add some extra texture and nutty flavor, top your soup with a handful of toasted coconut flakes or chopped roasted nuts like almonds or cashews. It adds a satisfying crunch.
- Protein Boost: For a heartier version, add in protein like cooked chicken, tofu, or white beans. Simply stir in your choice of protein after pureeing your soup, and you’ll have a more substantial meal.
- Roasted Goodness: While the original recipe is quick and easy, you change up the flavor by roasting fresh carrots before adding them to the soup. Roasting intensifies the carrot’s natural sweetness, adding a tasty caramelized depth to the dish.
- Citrus Zest: Brighten up the soup with a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice. Citrus adds a zesty and refreshing note that complements the rich coconut flavor.
- Maple Syrup Drizzle: Finish each bowl with a drizzle of pure maple syrup for a hint of sweetness. This simple addition adds a touch of indulgence to the dish.
What Can You Serve with Autumn Coconut Soup?
When it comes to serving Autumn Coconut Soup, there are so many options to complement and complete your meal.
For a timeless combination, a fresh works wonders. You can use seasonal greens like mixed greens, arugula, or spinach as your base. Add some sliced apples, pears, or toasted nuts. And serve it with a tasty dressing like Light and Creamy Balsamic, Greek Yogurt French Salad Dressing, or Greek Salad Dressing.
You can also serve it with a warm slice of crusty bread or a dinner roll. Or you can turn that bread into grilled cheese sandwich. Add your favorite cheese and maybe even some thinly sliced apples or pears for a delicious autumn twist.
