Equipment

  • blender
  • baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 400 g of peeled sweet potatoes this equaled one large sweet potato over here
  • 150 g of peeled carrots one medium size carrot
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • Chicken or vegetable broth as much as you like, I used less than one carton
  • Olive oil
  • Nutmeg i recommend grounding the nutmeg yourself for best flavor
  • Salt

Instructions

  • Begin by cutting the sweet potatoes into chunks and slicing the carrots. Quarter the onions and chop the end off the garlic, leaving the peel on. Season with a pinch of salt, drizzle some olive oil, and pop them in the oven until the veggies are tender. You can cover them with aluminum foil if you want.
  • Once all of your veggies are soft, transfer them to a blender. And remember to squeeze the garlic out of its peel when adding it to the mix.
  • To your blender, add a splash of broth, and start blending away. Keep adding broth until you achieve that silky smooth consistency you desire.
  • Grate a little bit of nutmeg into the mix for that extra dash of flavor. You can add as much as you like according to your personal preference.
  • And there you have it – a bowl of creamy, dreamy, yummy soup that's a time-saving masterpiece!

Notes

One more thing: This soup is incredibly easy to make. The trickiest part is cutting the carrots to the right size/thickness. Carrots take longer to cook than sweet potatoes, so to ensure everything is done at the same time, you must cut them into thinner slices or give them a head start in the oven. If you prefer not to do either, just add them to a separate baking tray. This way, you can take them out of the oven without risking burning the other veggies. If you have any questions, let me know! 🙂
