The aroma of pumpkin soup can lift anyone’s mood. The ginger pumpkin soup recipe does just the same. To make the broth, heat oil and add onions, shallots, and ginger. Cook until tender. Stir in flour, chicken stock and cider. Let it thicken.

Add in pumpkin, bay leaves, maple syrup, cinnamon, dried thyme, cloves and pepper. Bring this mix to a boil. Simmer for twenty minutes. Discard the bay leaves after removing the soup from heat. Blend the mix until smooth and boil until completely cooked. Your soup is ready to be served.
