Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cups yellow onion (chopped (about 1 large onion))
- 1 tablespoon curry powder (plus 1 teaspoon)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 bay leaf
- 5 large carrots (peeled and chopped)
- 4 cups soft-cooking apples (such as McIntosh, peeled, cored, and coarsely chopped (about 3 medium apples))
- 4 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- Greek yogurt (for serving (or coconut milk yogurt for vegan or dairy-free))
- Chopped peanuts (for serving)
- Chopped fresh cilantro (for serving)
Steps
-
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, then sauté until the onion is softened and translucent but not brown, 8 to 12 minutes.
-
Stir in the curry powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and bay leaf. Add the carrots and apples. Stir over medium heat for 2 minutes.
-
Add 3 1/2 cups stock. Bring the mixture to a low boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer until the carrots and apples are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
-
Remove the bay leaf. Using a large slotted spoon, transfer the soup solids to a food processor or blender. Add peanut butter and process to a smooth puree, adding the remaining 1/2 cup stock as needed so that it blends easily (alternatively, you can use an immersion blender directly in the pot).
-
Pour the puree back into the soup, then stir in the pepper. Serve hot, garnished with yogurt, peanuts, and cilantro.
