In the United States, pumpkin is most often used in sweet desserts, muffins, and bread. Around the world, however, it is a popular vegetable for savory dishes such as pumpkin soup made with traditionally made bone broth.

My husband grew up in Australia where roasted pumpkin is a very popular choice as a side dish. As a result, I’ve long since gotten used to using pumpkin alongside other more popular vegetables like carrots, broccoli, and green beans!

Homemade Pumpkin Soup

The pumpkin soup recipe below is one that I developed specifically to use up extra homemade pumpkin puree from making pumpkin pie, grain-free pumpkin cookies, and pumpkin bread during the Thanksgiving or Christmas holidays.
