Place carrots and apples in a blender and add broth or use an immersion blender***

Notes

***Depending on the season, sometimes the carrots may be on the bitter side causing the soup to taste slightly bitter. If this happens, there are several variations to try: Add a cup of apples sauce, add a cup of coconut milk, use MacIntosh Apples instead of green apples, add pears instead of apples.

***This may need to be done in 2 batches, depending on size of blender. If so, add half of the apples and carrots and half the vegetable broth to each batch and puree. Place the first batch in a large pot, while pureeing the second batch.

***If you are using an immersion blender, place the roasted carrots and apples in a large pot. Add the broth and blend until smooth. Then, add in the ginger, nutmeg and ginger and blend until all ingredients are well combined.
