Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and peel sweet potatoes, cut into wedges, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through.
  2. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add roasted sweet potatoes to the pot with onion and garlic. Sprinkle in thyme, rosemary, and basil, stirring to combine.
  4. Pour in vegetable broth to cover the mixture, bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer for 10–15 minutes.
  5. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If using a regular blender, cool slightly and blend in batches.
  6. Return the soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in coconut milk or heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve warm, garnished with extra coconut milk or cream and fresh herbs. Enjoy!
