Cozy Squash & Dumpling Soup


Print

This soup is cheesy, full of veggies, and every bite contains a fluffy, biscuit-like dumpling that pairs perfectly with the savoury cheesy flavour.

Ingredients

Soup

Dumplings

Directions

  1. 1

    Add the vegan butter and shallots to a large pot over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes, until translucent.

  2. 2

    Add carrots, squash, broccoli and broth. Boil, covered, for 15 minutes, until veggies are soft.

  3. 3

    Combine flour, baking powder, salt, vegan parmesan cheese and sage in a mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Add vegan buttermilk and stir to form a batter. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Use an immersion blender or blend soup until mostly smooth. If you use a blender, remove the plug from the lid and cover gently with a cloth to allow steam to escape and blend on LOWEST speed, until mostly smooth. Add soup back to pot and add vegan cream, cheese shreds, nutmeg and sage. Stir until cheese is melted. Keep soup at a simmer over medium heat.

  5. 5

    Use a tablespoon to drop dollops of batter into the soup. Try not to let them touch. You will get 8-10 dumplings. Cover and let simmer 8 minutes, until dumplings are expanded in size and floating on top.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle extra cheese on top and let melt a few minutes before serving.


Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days. To reheat, add to a pot over low-medium heat and stir frequently, until warmed through.
