Roasted Cherry Tomato Soup with a Velvety Finish

This vibrant soup delivers deep, rich flavor from slow-roasted cherry tomatoes, garlic, and herbs. Creamy, cozy, and perfect for dipping crusty bread!

🛒 Ingredients (Servings: 4)

2 pints cherry tomatoes
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
¼ cup heavy cream (optional, for creaminess)
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Crusty bread, for serving (optional)

🍳 Instructions:

1️⃣ Roast the Tomatoes:
🔥 Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread cherry tomatoes, chopped onion, and garlic cloves on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and thyme. Roast for 25–30 minutes, until tomatoes are blistered and aromatic.

2️⃣ Blend the Base:
🥣 Transfer the roasted veggies and juices into a blender or food processor. Add vegetable broth and blend until smooth. For a thinner soup, add more broth as needed.

3️⃣ Simmer and Enrich:
🍲 Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes. Stir in heavy cream if using, and adjust seasoning to taste.

4️⃣ Serve and Garnish:
🌿 Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil, and serve with warm crusty bread on the side.
