Rich, fragrant, and faintly spicy, this soup is the ideal comfort on a cold, rainy day.

Yield: 6 cups

Prep time: 30 minutes

Cooking time: 75 minutes

Difficulty Level: Moderate-Challenging

• 2 Tbsp. Horizon Organic® unsalted butter
• 1 small onion, coarsely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 3/4 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 1/2 tsp. coriander
• 1/4 tsp. cumin
• 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, or more to taste
• 3 (14-ounce) cans chicken or vegetable broth
• 1/2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
• 2 cups sliced carrots (about 2 carrots cut in 1-inch pieces)
• 5 cups sliced sweet potatoes (about 2 sweet potatoes cut in 1-inch chunks)
• 1/3 cup peanut butter
• 1/3 cup Horizon Organic heavy cream
• Horizon Organic plain yogurt, chopped peanuts, and chopped scallions for garnish

Combine the butter and chopped onion in a large saucepan over a medium flame and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, until the onions are browned. Add the garlic, salt, pepper, cinnamon, coriander, cumin and cayenne and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring, to bring out the flavor of the spices. Add the broth, fresh ginger, carrots and sweet potatoes and bring the pot to a simmer. Simmer for about one hour, until the carrots and sweet potatoes are very tender.

Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender or food processor until smooth. Use great care when handling hot liquids. (An immersion blender, which allows you to puree the soup right in the pot, is an excellent tool and well worth owning if you make a lot of soup.) Return the pureed mixture to the pot and add a bit of water if needed to adjust the texture. Bring to a simmer and stir in the peanut butter and cream. Serve hot with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of peanuts and scallions.

The soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to five days. It will thicken during storage. Thin with water if needed before serving.
