Sweet Potato Carrot Soup

Nothing reminds me more of autumn, than warm bowls of delicious stews and harvest soups. Now is a great season for carrots and Carrot soup is one of my favorite soups to make. It is a hearty soup that is sure to satisfy your taste buds, fill your belly up, on the first serving. Best of all it is a quick dish to make and fairly inexpensive. This dish made around 20 servings for my family, and we have eaten for lunch for several days now. I am unsure if it can be freeze due to the Yogurt? If anyone does know the answer to this feel free to leave a comment below.


  • 2 1/2 pounds peeled or scrubbed, chopped carrots
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, chopped (optional, for heartier soup)
  • 3-4 tablespoons Kerrygold butter
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1-2 small cloves crushed garlic
  • 1/3 cup Almond Flour
  • dash of Kosher salt
  • 1 cup of Greek Yogurt, plain
  • 1 tbsp of Honey
  • 1 tsp of nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried mint (I bought mint tea at the grocery store, and cut open the bag)
  • 1/2 tsp of cinnamon
  • and 1 tbsp of grated ginger (optional)

  1. In your dutch oven melt butter and saute onion, and garlic for 6 minutes or until onion is clear. Add salt, and potatoes and carrots, and saute for five more minutes.
  2. Add stock and water, and bring to a boil. Should take 15 to 20 minutes or until the carrots and potatoes are tender. 
  3. Mix soup in a blender, by transferring carefully, I would probably cool the soup if I were to use this method. Or you can carefully mix with a handheld mixer if you are in a hurry. Definitely wear an apron for this, and do not burn yourself!
  4. Stir in Almond flour, Greek yogurt, honey, and all the rest of the dry ingredients. 
Serve and enjoy!
