Sweet Potato Soup Recipe

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F Line a baking pan with tinfoil. Brush the outsides of the sweet potatoes with 2 tsp olive oil. Roast 40-45 minutes or until tender. Cool. Scoop out the flesh and discard the skin.
2. In a large pot over medium heat, sauté onion in remaining 4 teaspoons olive oil for 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add cooked potato flesh and broth. Bring to a boil; reduce to low, and add brown sugar, peanut butter, sweet paprika, and cayenne pepper. Cook 7-8 minutes. Turn off heat, and let cool 5-10 minutes.
3. Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender until smooth.
4. Return puree to the pot over low heat. Add the cream, lime juice, and cilantro. Stir occasionally until the soup is thoroughly heated, 8-10 minutes. Season to taste with salt. If you prefer a thinner soup, simply add a bit more broth until desired consistency is reached.
5. Garnish individual bowls with thinly sliced fresh cilantro and chopped peanuts.
