This hearty and healthy pumpkin soup is the perfect way to warm up any frosty fingers and toes after a night’s trick or treating. Just make sure your scooped-out pumpkin flesh stays fresh for cooking by popping it in the fridge after carving.
You’ll also need a hand blender or food processor to whizz the soup into a smooth consistency.
