Loaded Baked Sweet Potato Soup

As the cold weather approaches, let get into a cheesy baked sweet potato soup. It's loaded with all the fall flavors - sweet potato, rosemary, sage, nutmeg and topped with crispy bacon.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups sweet potato, peeled & cubed
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 shallots, diced
  • 8 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp sage
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 paprika
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup half & half
  • 1 cup gruyere cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. In a Dutch oven or soup pot, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove bacon from pot and leave 2 tbsp of bacon grease.
  2. Saute the onion, shallot, garlic, rosemary, sage, nutmeg, paprika, turmeric, salt and pepper until onions have softened.
  3. Add in the chicken broth, sweet potatoes, and 1/2 cup of half & half. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes until sweet potato have softened.
  4. Scoop out 1 1/2 cups of sweet potatoes (I eyeball this depending how chunky you want it). Blend the rest of the soup until smooth and then add the sweet potato chunks back in.
  5. Stir in the rest of the half & half and the gruyere cheese.
  6. Serve with the bacon crumbles, more Gruyere, and freshly chopped rosemary.
