Spiced Sweet Potato Soup
- 3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons unrefined virgin coconut oil, melted, or olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 6 to 8 cups Magic Mineral Broth (page 54)
- Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the sweet potatoes with the coconut oil until theyre evenly coated.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 teaspoon of the salt with the cinnamon, allspice, cardamom, and nutmeg and stir until well combined.
- Sprinkle the spice mixture over the potatoes and toss again until evenly coated.
- Place the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared pan and roast for 40 minutes, until tender.
- Pour 1/3 cup of the broth into a blender, add one-third of the roasted potatoes, and blend until smooth, adding more liquid as needed.
- Transfer to a soup pot over low heat and repeat the process two more times.
- Stir in any remaining broth, along with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, before serving.
- These roasted spiced sweet potatoes are fantastic on their own.
- Consider making half a recipe of soup and saving the remaining sweet potatoes for a delicious side dish or a quick and easy snack.

- Place a small ramekin filled with coconut oil in a bowl filled with a small amount of very hot water (dont use too much water, or it might overflow into the ramekin).
- The oil will turn to liquid before your eyes.
- Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
