What You'll Need:

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 1/2 cups chopped onion

1 cup chopped carrots

1 teaspoon sea salt

Ground black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 pound Italian-style sausage, casings removed

4 cups high-quality chicken broth

15-ounce can pumpkin puree (unsweetened)

1 tablespoon minced sage

1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons brown sugar

Pumpkin seeds (pepitas) for garnish

 

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the chopped onions and carrots, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Season the vegetables with sea salt, ground black pepper, and minced garlic.

Add the sausage to the pot, breaking it into smaller chunks as it cooks. Once browned completely, tilt the pot to remove any excess fat
