Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, chopped into florets

1 large onion, chopped

2 cloves of garlic, minced

4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)

1 cup coconut milk (or heavy cream for a non-vegan option)

3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon thyme (fresh or dried)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: toasted pumpkin seeds and chives for garnishing

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Cook Cauliflower: Add the cauliflower florets to the pot and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.

      Blend Soup: Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender (or use an immersion blender directly in the pot). Blend until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add more broth or water as desired.

        Add Creaminess: Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the coconut milk and maple syrup, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat just until warmed through, being careful not to boil.

          Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and drizzle with a bit more coconut milk and maple syrup if desired. Garnish with toasted pumpkin seeds and finely chopped chives for an extra touch.
