Looking for an easy healthy recipe to warm you up during those cold winter days? Try this carrot maple  soup. I am sure you will fight over it. It’s just that delicious!  I have never considered mixing carrot and maple syrup until I read a french cookbook suggesting that mix. The Carrot Maple soup looked delicious and I thought it will be a great twist on my usual caramelized carrot soup. Besides, it is ready within 40 minutes (preparation included).

Easy Healthy Recipe: Carrot Maple Soup

 Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 onions chopped
  • 1/4 cup of maple syrup
  • 2 cups of baby carrots. The recipe called for 8 carrots diced.
  • 8 cups of chicken broth
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tsp of curry powder. You can replace it with this Blue Dragon Curry Paste.  I tried it both ways and I prefer it with the curry paste as it adds more flavor.
  • optional: 1 tsp of ginger. I used fresh ginger shredded ginger.

  • In a large bowl, add olive oil, onions and ginger. Cook until onions are softened.
  • Add the carrots, maple syrup and broth.
  • Cover and let it simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Then blend it well. I usually blend half of the soup first and then the second half after. My blender cannot sustain a large quantity of soup and I don’t want to have splashes all over the kitchen.

This carrot maple soup is perfect with a delicious cheddar  meat loaf, some garlic bread . It is great on those cold winter nights. I find it is also a great way to use those large bags of baby carrots that I buy from Costco. Those carrots are not very tasty after 5 days so adding them to this easy healthy recipe is a great way to repurpose them.

  1. I have a whole whack of carrots in the fridge and wasn’t sure what to do with them. I’m thinking carrot cake cookies and this delicious sounding soup!! The best part is that I have everything on hand. Thanks for the recipe!! Now all I need to find is a nice seasonal bread recipe to go with it.

  2. This is the season when we start looking for different soup recipes. Standby’s are great but sometimes you just want to try something different.

  3. Sounds good, I never would of thought to add maple syrup to carrot soup but I am sure it would be a great addition! Thanks for the recipe, I will have to try it out!

  4. When I first saw this I thought, oh great…another cold carrot soup, but I was thrilled to see that this is served warm! The cold days and nights are coming fast and this would be a great soup to warm the insides.
