Roasted Carrot Soup Recipe

January 11, 2021 by Samantha 5 Comments

Roasted Carrot Soup recipe with Za’atar (a Middle Eastern spice blend) is the direct result of me being that person in the grocery store buying giant bags of whatever produce is on sale. Produce that looks like it’s in prime condition of course. Loaded with carrots and feeling like getting cozy with a bowl, I’m pretty sure my decision tree was on track the day I made this. It’s the recipe to make with lots of carrots on hand. 

Carrots are always used as a flavour booster in braised or stewed dishes so why not have a flavour packed bowl of soup? Topped with a small dollop of yogurt or coconut milk and sprinkled with za’atar, I’m going to stay cozy with a bowlful of this roasted carrot soup recipe for many days to come.

I often wonder why a roasted carrot soup recipe isn’t more of a thing for families. Or maybe it is and I’ve missed the boat. It’s packed with Vitamin A, Vitamin K (so important for our little ones as Vitamin K supports building and keeping strong bones and clots blood, it’s what helps blood to clot when kids scrap their knees), and dietary fibre, and it tastes great.

If you want to keep this soup vegan, the swirl of Greek yogurt can be replaced by coconut cream or skipped if preferred. 

If Za’atar feels like too much effort to hunt down, then some flaky sea salt and sesame seeds would work nicely. A pinch of flaky sea salt and about 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds should do the work. 

Chopped carrots, onions and garlic on a sheet pan ready to be roasted in the oven.

Roasting the carrots in lieu of simmering them creates a flavour with more depth while leaving the texture silky smooth. I will say that the colour is not as vibrant orange as it would be without roasting them, but the gain in favour is worth it.

Once cooled, this soup will freeze for up to 3 months in an airtight container. 

If you want an extra decadent soup, replacing some of the broth with coconut milk would be out of this world. Much like this Beet, Ginger and Coconut Milk Soup or this sublime silky Squash Soup with Herbed Quinoa.

How can it be Sunday night already?! All I know i How can it be Sunday night already?! 
All I know is I picked puzzles with the kids instead of prepping for the week ahead 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ll catch up tomorrow 🤞🏻. 

These Banana Buckwheat Donuts are happening this week for school lunches. Kids dig them. I dig them. Done deal. I just need a hot 30 min to make them happen. 

A friend also turned the recipe into a loaf so there are options out there if you don’t have a donut 🍩 pan.

This 4-Ingredient Green Smoothie gets a bucket loa This 4-Ingredient Green Smoothie gets a bucket load of spinach into our diets before we leave the house for school and work. It's one of my long time smoothies that I make for my kids. 

We've had it a few days in a row now to help us hit reset in the new year. 

The omega oil is optional and I sometimes switch out the banana for a navel orange for a different flavour profile. Oh and if you're an Orange Julius fan, try a 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract - you won't regret it!
