https://www.honeysucklecatering.com/blog/a-pumpkin-smoothie-and-soup

- 1 small pumpkin (about 3 – 5 pounds)
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chile powder
- 4 cups vegetable or chicken stock

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut pumpkin in half and scoop out the seeds. Rub olive oil in the pumpkin and season with salt and pepper. Lay cut side of pumpkin face-up. Roast for about 45 minutes, until pumpkin is tender and can easily be pierced with a fork. Once it is done, let the pumpkin cool and then remove the flesh (about 3 cups). Discard the skin.

In the meantime, add 2 tbsps of butter and 1 tbsp of olive oil to a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and sauté for about 10 minutes, until onions are translucent.

Add the pumpkin flesh, sage, cumin, chile powder, and stock. Bring to a boil and then lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Blend the soup using an immersion blender or transferring it to a regular blender (once the soup has cooled down significantly).
Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, dash of chile powder and pumpkin seeds. Add salt to taste and serve.
