    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    "Absolutely perfect. Next time I am going to double the recipe!! I used masaman curry paste since I didn't have the red Thai curry on hand. So good and beyond simple. - Faith"

    This 5 Ingredient Curry Peanut Pumpkin Soup was inspired by my Thai Curry Butternut Squash Soup. It has similar flavors but with about half the ingredients.

    You'd never know that this soup was made with just five ingredients. It is rich and comforting with coconut milk and peanut butter.

    Lime juice balances the richness out and adds some brightness.

    This pumpkin peanut soup is perfect for traveling because none of the ingredients need to be refrigerated until it is made. When I go camping I love to make easy dishes that don't require a lot of prep or cooking time.

    ❤️ Why You'll Love It

    • It is rich and comforting, with the perfect balance of flavors.
    • It's made in minutes.
    • It's made with only 5 ingredients!

    🧾 Ingredients

    Ingredients on a cutting board with labels.
    • Canned pumpkin puree: For its creamy texture and savory flavor. Make sure it is not pumpkin pie filling! Pie filling has sugar and spices in it. You could also use butternut squash puree.
    • Coconut milk: I used full-fat coconut milk. If you prefer light coconut milk, you may want less water.
    • Thai red curry paste: Adds sweet savory flavor.
    • Peanut butter: Adds a creamy nutty flavor.
    • Lime juice: I used key limes, but you could use any variety. Adds a tart flavor and balances out the richness.
    • Water: Thins the soup out.

    This is an overview of the ingredients. To see the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
