My family calls this Brussel Sprout Soup, although technically they’re Brussels sprouts with that “s” on the end and capital B. I call it Cream of Brussels Sprout Soup, they call it Brussel Sprout Soup, but either way, it’s easy and delicious.

I love how you basically put all the ingredients (except the cream) into one pot all at the same time!

To start, place the fresh Brussels sprouts in the pot. I trimmed off the ends and cut each sprout in half so they wouldn’t take so long to cook.

Then add the chopped celery, carrot, onion, garlic, dried thyme, and salt and pepper to the pot. You may need to adjust the seasoning to your family’s personal preference. I also added a little Dijon mustard but if you’re not a mustard fan you can leave it out.

Next, pour the broth on top of the other ingredients. I used chicken broth but you could use vegetable broth for a vegetarian soup.

I also added a little apple cider that we had in the house but you could omit or could also add a little more if you like apple. Fresh chopped apple would also be great in the soup!

Bring it all to a boil, then simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.

When the vegetables are soft and cooked through, use an immersion blender to blend the soup. I left mine a little on the chunkier side but you can continue blending until it’s a lot smoother.

Then add the cream and cook a little longer. If you want a creamier or thicker soup you can use more cream.

I LOVE my immersion blender, but if you don’t have one and don’t want to get one, you can also use a blender (or even a food processor). Be sure the soup is either cold when you add it to the blender or leave part of the top off of the blender to let the steam escape if the soup is hot, otherwise, it may explode, and you don’t want that.

  • 1/3 cup chopped carrot
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider (optional)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Place the fresh Brussels sprouts, celery, carrot, onion, garlic, mustard, thyme, pepper, and salt in a medium pot. Pour broth and cider and stir to combine. 
  • Place pot over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are cooked through and soft. 
  • Use an immersion blender to blend everything to desired consistency.

Notes

SNAPPY TIPS: If you don't have an immersion blender you can put the soup in a blender. BUT make sure the soup is cooled or you leave part of the blender top off to let the steam get out. 
SNAPPY SUBSTITUTIONS: The apple cider and mustard are optional. Use your favorite herb instead of the dried thyme if desired. The seasoning and salt/pepper may need to be adjusted to your family's personal preference.

    Awesome recipe, thank you! I used about twice the amount of most of the vegetables. We had homemade chicken drippings from two nights before for the broth and my brussels sprouts had already been roasted with grape and thyme and de-glazed with balsamic vinegar which is a favourite recipe of ours from Martha Stewart, but we had accidentally over cooked them, so I just threw that bundle in and added less apple cider vinegar. It was amazing! I will definitely use this recipe again.It saved us from wasting those mushy brussels sprouts and was so delicious that we wanted seconds!

    I made this tonight. It was simple and delicious. I used vegetable broth and after pureeing added some vegetable better than boullion. I also added some chopped kale that I had left over from another recipe I was making, and added that in the pot at the beginning. I added a dash of cayenne pepper at the end too. Thanks for the recipe. I will be making it again.
