Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Melt 2 tbsp butter in a pot over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook for 2 minutes, stirring, until soft and translucent.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in the pumpkin puree and broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, to let flavors meld.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in the cream. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well and heat through—don't boil.

  4. Step 4

    In a small skillet, melt the remaining 1 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add the sage leaves and cook for 2 minutes until butter turns golden brown and fragrant.

  5. Step 5

    Ladle soup into bowls. Drizzle with sage brown butter (spoon and leaves), and serve hot.
