Creamy Sausage Pumpkin Soup
A little sweet, a little spicy! Pumpkin Spice Caramel Keto Chow adds a surprising and unexpected background flavor to this hearty soup. This is an insanely delicious flavor combo!
Serving: 12
Calories: 412kcal
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 lb regular pork sausage
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 jalapeno peppers, chopped with seeds removed
- 2 poblano peppers, chopped
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 15 oz can diced tomatoes
- 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
- 1 8 oz can diced green chili peppers
- 1 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 serving Pumpkin Spice Caramel Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 8 oz cream cheese
Instructions
- Heat avocado oil in a large pot. Add sausage and cook through, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Drain off extra fat.
- While the sausage is draining, add the onion, garlic, jalapeno peppers, and poblano peppers to the pot and cook until the vegetables are tender.
- Add sausage back into the pot with the vegetables. Sprinkle with the chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, and salt.
- Stir the tomatoes, pumpkin puree, and green chili peppers into the mixture.
- Using an immersion blender, mixer, or whisk, stir the Pumpkin Spice Caramel Keto Chow into the chicken broth. You'll want to do this to break up any clumps. Mix really well and then stir into the pot.
- Reduce heat to low and add the heavy whipping cream and cream cheese to the soup. Stir well until the cream cheese is melted and everything is heated through.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
The recipe as stated is fabulous - so craveable! It is flexible, though, if a lower carb count were desired. The peppers and tomato amounts could easily be lessened and the soup would still be amazing.

The grocery store in my tiny town didn’t have poblano peppers, so I just used two jalapenos and didn’t remove the pith and seeds. I also used a 10 ounce can of diced tomatoes instead of 15. It turned out fantastic, very delicious and filling, with a good kick but not an overwhelming amount of heat. Definitely a soup I will want to make again.
My family loves LOVES this recipe. Each time I make it they ask why we don’t have it more often. So many wonderful flavors! Thank you, Oh Hello!
OMGoodness this is delish. So easy too make and will freeze easily.
Best soup on the planet! I keep buying more pumpkin spice caramel keto chow just so I can have this soup. It’s just the right amount of savory, spicy, and sweet.
