Vegan Sweet Potato Cauliflower Soup made with coconut milk. This recipe is so smooth and creamy, it is guilt free comfort food.
Oh my gosh. Two savoury recipes in a row? What is coming over me?
Probably because it is the first day of fall, so I am trying to get in as many warm and comforting food as I can before the cold really truly comes to Toronto.
Also, gotta use cauliflower before it goes out of season. I didn’t use it nearly enough in the summer, and I just know I will miss it in the winter.
But I mean, look at how CREAMY this Sweet Potato Cauliflower Soup is!! I made it a couple of weeks ago, and have been dying to share this with you. The only problem is, I am the weirdo who eats soup all year round. I know that posting a soup recipe in the summer isn’t generally helpful for the average person who is only looking for recipes to cool down with.
Soups are acceptable on the first day of fall, right? I will get to the pumpkin recipes later. Give me a comforting bowl of soup and I will love you forever.
You’d think that a soup this creamy must have a cream base or something.
Nope! This Sweet Potato Cauliflower Soup recipe is 100% vegan. TRUUUST me, you don’t miss the cream in this recipe. The combination of the sweet potatoes, cauliflower and the coconut milk all blended together with an immersion blender provides all the creaminess you need.
And for those of you out there who can’t go a meal without meat? Yeah, that was John before I converted him on this soup. We had it every day for one week, and he wasn’t missing meat one bit.
Yeah. It’s that good.
I like topping it off with some extra coconut milk, either by drizzling it on with a spoon, or swirling it around with a toothpick. I have included photos of each one so that you can decide how you would like to style your soup.
And if you are STILL missing having meat with your meal, topping it with crispy bacon bits is also super delicious. Speaking from experience. 👌

This looks so creamy and delicious! I just bought a cauliflower so it seems like it was meant to be to have a soup like this 😀
It’s one of my favourites 🙂
Don’t worry you’re not alone, I eat soup all year round. Then again Scotland never gets that warm……lol.
Haha! It’s weird because everyone thinks that Canada is a frozen wasteland. maybe we should change that stereotype to Scotland 😉
I’m allergic to coconut, would cashew milk work instead or does it need to be something thicker?
Preferably thicker, but cashew milk would work as a substitute!
what a pretty soup I just love soups that are pureed and sweet potatoes an cauliflower sound perfect together!
Thanks Claudia! I love soups in the fall 🙂

What a beautiful looking soup and it does look thick and creamy. A wonderful Fall soup that would certainly warm me up and be so satisfying. Luckily we can get cauliflower and sweet potatoes all year long so I’m not constrained by time.
