This subtly sweet and spicy pumpkin and apple soup is a must-have for autumn. It’s a simple, creamy and comforting dish for colder days. This soup is healthy and nutrient-rich, quick to make (only 30 minutes) and the best part that it’s totally customisable: try with sage, bay leaf, summer savory, smoked paprika, curry, cinnamon or even cardamom!
I’ve said it before but can’t say it enough: I absolutely love autumn and I’m so happy I can have my warm soups again! There is just nothing better than those cozy cold days with a big bowl of soup. If you guys are anything like me, a delicious pumpkin soup is your favourite thing when fall begins. Last week I welcomed the new season with this simple version here, so fall has officially started for me. Expect a lots of yummy soups here!

I can’t put it better than Rebecca – you really nailed the flavors of fall! All of the best ingredients in one soup 🙂
Thanks, Sarah!
Evi, this pumpkin apple soup is gorgeous! It makes me yearn for fall and hope that the cool weather soon arrives in Florida. 🙂
Thank you, Julie!
The colder weather is already here, in Northern Germany, in fact it’s always here 😀
I was sold at pumpkin… It looks absolutely delicious! And I am so glad I discovered your blog, it’s so so beautiful!!
Thank you so much, Jane!
Your blog is beautiful too, I absolutely love your minimalist photography! ♥
What a lovely soup! I could eat a bowl or two right now 😛 I love adding apple to my squash soups sometimes as well — love the sweetness and texture it adds to pureed soups <3
Thank, Audrey!
Adding apples to squash soups is such a lovely thing, since I have a little apple tree next to my flat I do it all the time 🙂
Beautiful, Evi! Oat cream is a new one for me… will have to give that a try 🙂
Thank you, Alison!
Oat cream is fantastic, you have to try! 🙂
Yay for pumpking recipes! And for autumn! And for this soup 😀 Looks amazing
Thank you ♥
If I can’t find that specific pumpkin, can I use a regular baking one?
Of course!
But don’t forget to peel the baking pumpkin first! (You can eat the skin of the hokkaido squash, but the other ones’ skins are not so yummy) 😉
Lovely pictures!
Thanks, Adina!
Evi, this soup looks soooo good!! Okay, so it’s totally the end of May right now, and we’re just a hop away from summer here. And yet, I can’t stop thinking about this soup! Since learning that you look forward to autumn so much, I can say that I’m very excited to see what you come up with this year! I, myself, am already planning on pumpkin loaves, pumpkin smoothies… and, well, waiting for you to introduce me to new gourds so I can be more creative. Haha. In the mean time, I’ll be drooling over these cute little jars of sweet pumpkin and apple soup. I think I’ll take mine with cardamom, please! Pinning, of course. 🙂
Demeter, you go back to my old recipes and remind me I can’t wait for having pumpkin season again! It’s just the best! I’m really happy for spring/summer produce, but right now all I want is some autumnal food 😀
And I am so excited for your pumpkin recipe!!! Pumpkin loaves, wow, that sounds amazing! Sweet or savoury? So far I have only tried once a sweet pumpkin loaf and that was absolutely delicious, really looking forward to seeing your recipe 🙂
This is my favorite soup recipe! Thanks for a great recipe.
Hi Mimi, I’m so happy you like the soup 🙂
