With the chilly weather upon us, who doesn’t love a piping hot soup when we get home? Using a cooking blender, this can be easily done in 45 minutes. Clean up is a breeze as this blender self cleans. Amazing!

Sweet Potato & Carrot Soup
Equipment
- Deluxe Cooking Blender
- vegetable peeler
- knife
Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes (peeled and chopped in large chunks)
- 3 carrots (peeled and chopped 1-2 inch chunks)
- 1 onion (quartered)
- 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
- 1 apple (optional) (peeled, chopped in large chunks)
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp curry powder (to taste)
- 2 garlic clove (peeled and chopped)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1 tsp tumeric (optional)
- coconut milk cream (for garnish)
Instructions
- This recipe is for a cooking blender. Add liquids into the blender first, then the seasonings.
- Add all the chopped vegetables and apple. Put the lid on and lock it. Turn the knob to the Soup setting. It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete the cycle and the soup will be piping hot. Be careful because the glass will be hot.
- Pour the hot soup into bowls. Add a dollop of coconut cream on top. Serve with crusty bread.
- Optional: Sprinkle croutons or toasted pita chips on top.
Notes
If you don't have a cooking blender, you can make this soup in a large pot. Just simmer the vegetables for about 20 minutes until the sweet potato is soft. Pour into a blender or use an immersion blender to make a smooth creamy soup.
