Roasted Eggplant Soup recipe made with eggplant, carrots and garlic. Vegetables are roasted in the oven and then pureed with a creamy broth on the stovetop. It's one of my family's favorite recipes using eggplant from our garden!
Place eggplant, carrots and garlic on a baking sheet. Drizzle vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir the vegetables to coat them.
Place vegetables in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, stirring them halfway. Remove from oven and set aside.
In a large pot over medium high heat, melt butter and and add flour, whisking it to make it smooth. Add broth and milk and continue to whisk until creamy, for about 5 minutes.
Add the vegetables into the pot and use a immersion blender or blender and blend until the soup is creamy. Careful, the soup is hot!
Serve in bowls and enjoy! I love mine with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top! Leftovers? Store in a an airtight container in the refrigerator, good for 3-4 days. You can also freeze this soup! Add to a freezer bag and freeze, good for 6 months.
