Pumpkins Soup recipe

Homemade pumpkin soup is easy to make.

All you need to make pumpkin soup is some pumpkin puree, chicken or vegetable stock, an apple, maple syrup, half and half and some spices.

I made Cinnamon Maple Toasted Pumpkin Seeds to garnish the Crock Pot Pumpkin Soup but you could use dry roasted pepitas or homemade roasted pumpkin seeds to go with yours.
