Paleo Butternut Carrot Soup with Ginger

It’s officially soup season and I am LIVING for it. Ever since I got an instant pot (or rather, since I finally used my instant pot) I’ve been ready for soup season because it makes cooking a meal dramatically easier when you can just put everything in one pot and call it a day. Plus, there is something magical about a creamy, coconut milk-based soup that makes eating gluten and dairy free seem not so bad after all. You’re having a creamy, warm soup full of deliciousness so what is there to be mad about? I believe this is what Megamind meant when he talked about Extravagant Gifts of Deliciousness. (SUCH a good movie.)

Today we’re making one of my favorite variations of soup: Butternut! Butternut Carrot with Ginger to be exact. This dairy-free soup packs a mean punch of vitamins and minerals between the butternut, carrots, and ginger, which sounds like exactly what we all need this time of year. Plus it’s full of ginger spice and a touch of sweetness from coconut aminos to top it all off. This butternut soup is going to be on repeat here all fall and winter long! Oh, and it’s Whole 30 compliant if that’s your jam.

What you need to make butternut soup:

Like most of my recipes this Paleo Butternut Soup is as simple as possible, with just a few veggies, some healthy fats, broth, and creamy coconut milk. Here’s exactly what you need:

  • Coconut oil: or your oil of choice (avocado, etc.)
  • White onion: can omit if you are sensitive to onions
  • Garlic: use whole, minced cloves, or sub 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
  • Ginger: freshly grated ginger is the way to go for that delicious ginger taste and all of the health benefits!
  • Butternut Squash: 1 medium-large squash should do the trick!
  • Carrots: 4 large carrots or 6 small ones should be enough
  • Canned coconut milk: I used full fat coconut milk from Thrive Market
  • Bone broth (or vegetable stock for vegan): I used Bonafide Provisions Turkey Bone Broth
  • Coconut Aminos: Aminos are like a natural soy sauce alternative and I LOVE them. They add the perfect sweet umami taste to any dish!
