This Skinny Pumpkin Soup is just what you need to stay cozy inside when the weather starts to cool and you’re wanting to put on a sweater. It’s delicious and low in calories – the perfect duo.
When fall comes and people start talking about pumpkin, dessert recipes often top the list. While we’re certainly not against a good Pumpkin Dump Cake or some Cranberry Pumpkin Bread, sometimes you need low calorie option to fill your pumpkin craving.
This Skinny Pumpkin Soup is easy to make and will please all of the pumpkin fans in your household. Start by melting your butter in a large pan, over medium heat. Add your onion and garlic and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the onions are tender and the garlic smell is filling your kitchen.
Add the red pepper and let it cook for another minute before adding the broth. Bring it all up to a boil. Then, stir in the potatoes and corn. Reduce the heat and let simmer for about 30 minutes.
The last step is to add the milk and pumpkin puree and cook until heated through. Serve warm!
Do you have allergies? You can change things around to make it allergy friendly.
Is this recipe Gluten free? Yes! Plus, if you need to make it dairy free, you can substitute the butter for olive oil and the skim milk for rice milk or almond milk.

Sometimes I like trying different ways to make this recipe. Consider mixing and matching with some of the following:
-
- Garlic – a classic, go-to flavor
- Ginger – a little bit spicy, but with a hint of sweet
- Maple Syrup – just drizzle a bit on top for a sweet pork
- Cinnamon – a warm flavor that pairs well with pumpkin
- Brown Sugar – just a little sprinkle to elevate the sweetness
- Cumin – nutty, warm taste that adds some spice
- Coriander – pairs well with cumin or cinnamon
