First, you will need to roast the pumpkin. Cut the pumpkin in half and put it onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake it for 30 minutes at 400F (200°C).
When the pumpkin is done, carefully remove the seeds and the skin.
In a large pot heat the oil and fry the garlic, onion powder, salt, veggie stock powder, and black pepper. Fry for 30 seconds and add baked pumpkin and water.
When everything is combined add soy cream and lemon juice.
Remove from the heat and blend using a hand blender or a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy.
Serve with extra soy cream, roasted pumpkin seeds, or croutons. Enjoy!
