20 Creamy Sweet Potato Soup Recipes

I think sweet potatoes are one of the best soup ingredients. They have a natural sweetness that gets even richer when cooked, and they blend up into the creamiest texture without needing much help. I love making these soups in the fall, but really, I crave them all year long.

They can be smooth and simple or spiced up with exciting flavors from different places.

Here are 20 creamy sweet potato soup recipes I make when I want something that feels nourishing and deeply comforting. They are easy to love and even easier to make.
