So here’s how this soup happened.  I was given a eggplant in the community garden.  What should I make? Sure, I can make my Veggie Nuggets or Eggplant Casserole but I wanted something more comforting for a Fall night. 

Eggplant Recipe

But enter this 1 beautiful eggplant that was just sitting on my kitchen counter.   It was tearing me apart looking at it and  not knowing what to do.   Then one night I made my Roasted Cauliflower Soup, a family favorite.   As I was cleaning up the bowls, I walked by this eggplant in the kitchen and a idea sparked.

Could I roast this eggplant with other vegetables to create a creamy soup? You bet I can!  Roasted Eggplant Soup was born!  And now it’s one of my favorite meals! 

Eggplant Soup Recipe

This eggplant soup is easy to make, and is sure to become a staple in your recipe books for everything “eggplant”.  You can serve it as a main dish with some crusty bread,  as an appetizer for a full course meal (think holiday dinner), or as a light meal alongside a salad.

The ingredients you need for this recipe are:

  • eggplant
  • carrots
  • garlic
  • olive oil
  • salt + pepper
  • butter
  • flour
  • vegetable broth
  • milk

I love that all the ingredients are so simple that you probably already have everything in your pantry.  That means no extra trips to the grocery store! YAY!

How to Roast Eggplant

Roasting eggplant is easy to do.  And might I say, it’s beautiful too!

Roasted Eggplant and Carrots

  1. Cut your eggplant up into slices.
  2. Add olive oil, salt and pepper to the eggplant slices and mix to combine.Roasted Eggplant Soup recipe made with eggplant, carrots and garlic.  This creamy healthy soup is easy to make and only 222 calories a serving.

  3. Cook at 425 degrees for 40 minutes, flipping the eggplant at the 20 minute mark.

Not only are we roasting eggplant in this recipe, but we are adding chopped carrots and garlic too.  

My family loves roasted vegetables, in fact we eat them a few nights a week.  Roasted vegetables are the perfect addition to your diet, and a easy way to get picky eaters to eat more veggies!

How to Make a Creamy Soup

After your vegetables are finished roasting, you’re going to start making the soup on top of the stove.    You’ll melt flour and butter together, and then add broth and milk.  Once that’s mixed and creamy, throw in your roasted vegetables.

Now grab your immersion blender and put it on low, and slowly blend the soup together,  blending all the chunks of eggplant and carrots completely.  If you don’t have a handheld immersion blender, you can also transfer the soup to a blender.  Be careful if you do this as the soup is hot!

After everything is blended, then it’s time to serve this eggplant soup!

Vegetarian Dinner for the Entire Family

Need a new recipe to try for Meatless Mondays?  This eggplant soup is a healthy vegetarian supper recipe.  There’s no meat or animal products in it.

If you want to turn it vegan, you totally can by substituting almond milk and soy butter. 

I have a toddler, so I understand the difficulty in getting kids to try new ingredients, especially when it comes to vegetables.   This is a great eggplant recipe for kids because it blends it all together into one of their favorite foods: soup!  My toddler not only likes this soup, but she requests it at dinner time “Mommy! Eggplant Soup!”.     

Happy toddler, happy family, happy dinner time!

    I was surprised how tasty this was (especially given that I’d used a years-frozen eggplant) and loved that I’d had all the ingredients on hand. So glad I stumbled upon your recipe – thanks for sharing!
