Sharing is caring!

I have been doing a version of this healthy pumpkin soup for about 10 years now, and there has been a popular recipe in the Thermomix group files for it – I finally got around to blogging it and giving people yet another use for their powdered gold (babas!). 

I hope you all enjoy this healthy Thermomix recipe.

Creamy Coconut Curried Pumpkin Soup – A Hug in a Bowl

When the weather turns cool and comfort food cravings hit hard, this Coconut Curried Pumpkin Soup is like a warm hug in a bowl. Velvety smooth, naturally sweet pumpkin, rich coconut cream and that gentle hit of curry spice…this is no ordinary pumpkin soup.

This Thermomix-friendly recipe is everything we love about Skinnymixers: wholesome, easy, budget-friendly and packed with flavour. Whether you’re meal prepping, cooking for the family, or need something cozy and nourishing after a big day, this soup ticks all the boxes.

This one’s naturally dairy-free, gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan-friendly. Just good real food with big flavour.


Why You’ll Love This Pumpkin Soup

Big on flavour, low on effort – This soup delivers maximum comfort with minimal hands-on time. A quick sauté, a simmer, then a blend—it’s ready in under 30 minutes!

Thermomix makes it ridiculously easy – No chopping required. Just throw everything in and let the Thermomix do the work.

Perfect for batch cooking – Make a big pot and freeze in portions for future you. This recipe freezes beautifully and reheats like a dream.

Customisable spice level – Love heat? Add a little extra curry powder or chilli. Prefer it milder? Stick to the base recipe—it’s wonderfully balanced.

Budget and pantry friendly – Using simple, staple ingredients like pumpkin, onion, garlic, stock and curry powder, this soup proves that delicious doesn’t have to be expensive.

Ingredients that Make It Special

  • Pumpkin – The hero of the dish! Butternut or Kent are both perfect here—sweet, smooth, and silky once blended.

  • Onion & Garlic – A flavour base that’s simple but essential.

  • Yellow Curry Powder – This gives the soup its warm, aromatic personality without overwhelming the sweetness of the pumpkin.

  • Coconut Cream – For that ultra-creamy, luxurious finish. It balances the spice and brings everything together.

💡 Skinnymixers Tip: Want to add some protein? Toss in some cooked red lentils or shredded chicken at the end—perfect for bulking it up into a full meal.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this Coconut Curried Pumpkin Soup with:

  • A swirl of coconut cream or Greek yoghurt (if dairy is tolerated)

  • Toasted pepitas or crispy chickpeas for crunch

  • Crusty bread or a slice of low-carb naan

  • A sprinkle of fresh coriander or chives for that pop of green

This soup is also perfect in a thermos for lunchboxes or as a starter for dinner parties (yes, it’s that good!).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Kids asked for seconds. That’s all I need to say.”


How to Store It

Use your sharp blade for this recipe.

At step 2 you may need to add on 1-2 mins cooking time, or until onions and garlic are cooked to your liking
At step 4 add on a cooking time if required.
At step 5 allow to cool slightly (5-10 minutes) and then very slowly increase speed, then slowly decrease speed towards the end of the blending time. Blend for longer if required, taking the same precautions to ensure no build up of pressure when blending.

coconut curried pumpkin soup thermomix recipe by skinnymixers

  1. This is a really tasty soup. I think if it was made thicker it could be a really good healthy curry sauce too.

  2. double thumbs up from my dad and hubby on this one – making again this weekend.
    I am not a soup eater but did taste it and liked the taste 🙂

        1. Hi Charlotte, it is a runnier style soup. Next time you could reduce the water a bit to make it thicker if you prefer that style. I would reduce to 500g water and see how that went 🙂

    1. Yes! Well, somewhat – i eat carrots, maintenance for me. So i used 500g kent pumpkin, 3 med/small carrots, chicken stock paste and same amount of water. But, before i started cooking i milled 100g of almonds and set aside, to thicken once cooked, as i thought it might be thin without the sweet potato. I then cooked the soup, and added the milled almonds after the coconut cream, and blitzed for another 10 secs. Let rest for at least 5 mins. I liked it!

  3. Love this soup. I only use a small tin of coconut cream (270 I think) and still tastes delicious. Super quick and super easy.

  4. Just made this for the first time and OMG the easiest and tastiest recipe ever nom nom nom!!

  5. The most devine pumpkin soup i’ve ever tasted. Loved by my 4 year old as well. Thank you Nik 😀

  6. Made for the first time today, love the slight spicy flavour that the Babas curry adds. Great for winter!

  7. Made this soup for the first time today, it would have to be one of the best pumpkin soups I’ve tasted.

  8. What can I say! This is THE perfect pumpkin soup! Made it tonight for mothers day and it was just what I needed!

  9. I have just made the coconut curried pumpkin soup. It is very sweet and I was wondering if there was anything I could add to take the sweetness away.
    Thank you

  10. I love recipes that are versatile like this! I had 250g pumpkin, 1 capsicum, 1 zucchini & about 600g sweet potato. Threw it all in and it is amazing!! I didn’t add the coconut cream as I didn’t think it needed it. This is a keeper in my household for sure!

  11. AMAZING!!! I was yet to find a pumpkin soup better the my mums until today! Absolutely Devine! I would have liked it a little thicker I think but still amazing! Thank you! 🙂
