CREAM OF PUMPKIN SOUP RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
• Add all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt to a large bowl. Mix until combined. Set aside.
• In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter (cooled), and vanilla extract until combined. Then, add these wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix using a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon until just combined. Don't over-mix the batter.
• Grease the muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or line with paper liners. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin. Fill each liner about ¾ full. Set aside.
• Prepare the cream cheese filling. In a bowl, whisk together softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, milk, and vanilla extract until combined. Then, transfer the cream cheese filling to the piping bag. Fill each muffin with the cream cheese filling: dip the cut tip of the pastry bag into the center of the batter and slowly add the filling and lift the pastry bag to the top of the muffin. You need to add about 1 tbsp of cream cheese filling to each pumpkin muffin.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until ready. Check the readiness of the Starbucks pumpkin cream cheese muffins using a toothpick inserted in the part without the filling, if it comes out clean - Starbucks pumpkin cream cheese muffins are ready. Then, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let Starbucks pumpkin cream cheese muffin cool slightly. Then, remove from the tin.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Peel, deseed and chop the pumpkin into 3cm chunks (reserve the seeds for the relish – see tip). Tip the pumpkin onto a baking tray, drizzle over half the oil, scatter with the allspice and toss well. Season and roast for 30 mins until golden and tender. Meanwhile, toast the coconut flakes for the relish in a dry frying pan over a low heat for a few minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the pan and leave to cool, then stir in the pumpkin seeds, chilli, coriander and lime zest.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat, and fry the onion for 5 mins until tender but not golden. Add the ginger and garlic and fry for another minute, then tip in 1 litre stock and the miso. Put the roasted pumpkin in the pan, then bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and blend the soup with a stick blender until smooth. If you prefer a thinner soup, add the remaining stock. Return the soup to a gentle simmer, then season well and stir in the lime juice. Ladle into bowls, and serve topped with a swirl of the soya cream and a sprinkle of the relish.
