  1. Just made this delicious yummy soup. It is the best soup ever. If you like pumpkin pie you will love it. Creamy and rich. Spices are a fragrant addition. Love it. Thank you.

    1. Jeanne,
      Your comments made our day! We are so pleased you love the soup. It’s definitely one of our all-time favorites. Have a wonderful day?

  2. Good evening, I am looking for soup recipes that are low FODMAP. How does this pumpkin sweet potato soup freeze. I am batch cooking for my mom who benefits from this diet.
    Thank you.

  3. I am making the recipe today. I bought two sweet potatoes, I considered medium size. I see that the recipe included 300g. Is 300g for 1 sweet potato or 2? One of my sweet potatoes weighed 340 before peeling.

  4. Looking forward to trying this soup! Is there any suitable substitute for the coconut cream? For some reason I don’t do well with coconut. Thank you!

    1. Hi Eva!
      You are in for a treat- this soup is AMAZING!
      If you tolerate dairy- then you can substitute lactose-free half and half cream, or heavy whipping cream. The amount of lactose in whipping cream is low enough that 1/4 cup is one low-FODMAP serving. Good luck!!

  5. Hello, I am planning on making this for dinner guests. Do you think it would be okay to put in the InstaPot and pressure cook instead of slow cooking? And roughly how long do you think it would need?

    1. Hi Hannah!
      We are sure that would work, but can’t offer advice since we have not used an Instant Pot. Perhaps some other conversion sites would help? Hope you love the soup!!

  6. My friend is going thru cancer, she is dairy and gluten free and night shade free. Could I use the coconut cream and coconut milk instead of lactose free milk?

    1. Thanks for the question!
      Due to FODMAP content of sorbitol, using that much coconut milk and cream would end up in 8 servings for this recipe. Good luck!

  7. I made this soup three days ago and have eaten it every day since. It is the best soup I have ever tasted! I can’t wait to make it again and share with friends.

  8. Delicious

    I made this soup and have been having it for lunch all week, it’s absolutely delicious and really gentle on my insides. I couldn’t find tinned pumpkin (in the UK maybe not as popular as elsewhere) so I used a butternut squash which I roasted first in a drizzle of olive oil.

    1. Hi Gillian,
      So happy to hear that! I am so glad the soup was a success. Please stay in touch.

  9. Love, love, love this soup! I’ve made it three times now and never tire of it. Rich but gentle on the tummy, creamy, so flavorful!

    1. Lynda,
      So lovely to read these comments. You made my day wonderful!!
