Ingredients

4cups carrots(approx. 1.5 lbs, peeled and cut into chunks)
1 apple(peeled, cored and sliced)
1 small onion
1 clove garlic
2tablespoons fresh ginger root(peeled and grated)
4cups coconut water(or water or vegetable broth)
3tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add ginger and garlic and cook for another minute or so, until fragrant.
Add apples and carrots and pour coconut water into the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until carrots and apples are softened, about 30 minutes
Remove pot from the heat source and let rest for 10 minutes.
Blend the soup using an immersion blender directly in the pot, or blend the soup in batches with a traditional blender.
Add more coconut water to the soup if you want it to have a thinner consistency.

Recipe Notes

If using a traditional blender to blend the soup, make sure to leave the blender lid slightly ajar to let the steam escape, otherwise your hot soup may explode everywhere.

Store soup in an airtight container. Soup lasts up to 4 days in the refrigerator. Freezes very well.
