Creamy roasted garlic tomato soup is a comforting blend of slow-roasted garlic, juicy tomatoes, and herbs, pureed into a smooth, rich soup with a velvety texture perfect for dipping grilled cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs ripe tomatoes, halved
  • 1 bulb garlic
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or coconut milk
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place halved tomatoes and chopped onion on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, thyme, and sugar.
  2. Slice the top off the garlic bulb to expose cloves. Wrap in foil and place on the baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 35–40 minutes, or until tomatoes are soft and garlic is golden and tender.
  4. Remove roasted garlic from foil and squeeze cloves into a blender. Add roasted tomatoes and onions.
  5. Pour in vegetable broth and blend until smooth (blend in batches if needed).
  6. Transfer the mixture to a large pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  7. Stir in heavy cream or coconut milk and cook for 5 more minutes until heated through.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil if desired.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, use coconut milk instead of heavy cream.
  • To enhance the flavor, add a splash of balsamic vinegar before serving.
  • Great paired with crusty bread or a grilled cheese sandwich.
