Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree

1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes (with juices)

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)

1 cup coconut milk (or heavy cream for a richer flavor)

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Crusty bread for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crockpot: Begin by adding the diced onion and minced garlic to the bottom of the crockpot. Drizzle with olive oil and stir to coat.

    Add Pumpkin and Tomatoes: Pour in the pumpkin puree and diced tomatoes, including their juices, to create a flavorful base.

      Pour in Broth and Coconut Milk: Slowly add the vegetable broth and coconut milk, stirring gently to combine all the ingredients.

        Season the Soup: Sprinkle in dried basil, oregano, cumin, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences.

          Cook on Low: Cover the crockpot and set it on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. This slow cooking will allow the flavors to meld beautifully.

            Blend for Creaminess: Once cooking is complete, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, you can carefully ladle the soup into a blender in batches, blending until creamy and returning to the crockpot.)

              Final Touches: Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Allow it to cook for an additional 10-15 minutes after blending to heat through.

                Serve: Ladle the creamy tomato pumpkin soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve hot with crusty bread for dipping.
