Best Keto Carrot Soup

This keto carrot soup is simply the best. Why do I say this? Because this recipe is easy, healthy, and flat-out delicious!

Are you wondering if carrot soup is keto-friendly? The answer is yes, with a few things to keep in mind.

Look, I know that carrots are root vegetables and, therefore, higher in carbs than, say, leafy greens. But do you know that a medium carrot has just four net grams of carbs?

Keep the serving of this soup to one cup and serve with a keto salad as a main meal or as an appetizer before a meal that is low in carbs, and you will be good to go.

Carrots can be eaten on keto, but not in large quantities or too frequently. As long as you understand this, a recipe like this creamy roasted carrot soup can be part of your diet.

In my opinion, most people on a keto diet can enjoy a serving of carrots every once in a while. In fact, I have an entire collection of keto carrot recipes because I feel carrots on keto are a viable option.

Plus, they are loaded with flavor and nutrition. So, with a little proper macro-planning, you can have the flexibility to enjoy delicious dishes like this soup if you so desire. 

Keto-Friendly Carrot Soup

This recipe for keto roasted carrot soup has 6.1 net carbs for one cup of soup. You can plan the rest of your meal around this or reduce the serving to shave off some carbs further.

I’ll admit that cream of carrot soup will have more carbs than some of my other low-carb carrot recipes, but it’s worth planning for as an occasional treat.

My philosophy when it comes to creating keto recipes is that the recipes I share will make the diet more sustainable.

After all, the key to reaping the many benefits of the ketogenic diet is to stay committed.

Unfortunately, if the diet feels too constraining, most will give up before seeing the results they hope for. That defeats the purpose, no?

Do you know what else is great about this healthy carrot soup? It’s a tasty recipe that the entire family will enjoy.

That’s right. I’m pretty convinced that even the kids will enjoy this. It’s perfect for sneaking more veggies into their diet.

This soup is not limited to individuals on a keto diet. So whether you are trying to limit your carbs, reduce your sugar intake, or want a healthier alternative, this is the soup you’ll want to make.

Creamy Carrot Soup With Ginger

By using a little ginger powder, I quickly elevated the soup and gave it a boost of antioxidants. Winning!

How To Make Keto Carrot Soup

Note that the full printable recipe card is at the bottom of the post. The following are some tips and suggestions to ensure the best results.

Making this soup is a delicious breeze. It starts by roasting the carrots. Although many recipes call for boiling or sautéing them, I found that roasting them is best for maximum flavor.

Not only does roasting make for a more flavorful soup, but it consistently produces fork-tender carrots. It also adds a depth of flavor that you would otherwise miss if you just boiled the carrots.

Yes, roasting carrots take a little time, but unlike sautéing, you don’t need to watch over them constantly.

You can even roast the carrots ahead of time and store them in the fridge until you’re ready to make the soup.

How To Roast Carrots For Soup

To roast the carrots, season the whole carrots with salt and pepper and toss them in enough olive oil to coat them evenly.

Place them on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 425-degree oven for about 45 minutes or until they are fork-tender and browned on some parts.

You’ll want a little charring, which makes a roasted carrot soup extra flavorful. After the carrots have cooled, cut them into pieces that comfortably accommodate your blender.

Place the carrots along with one and a half cups of the chicken broth, and puree until well combined. Then, transfer the puree to a pot and add the rest of the chicken stock, spices, and butter.

Cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes until the soup begins to simmer, being sure to stir occasionally so that the soup does not scorch.

Then, turn the heat down to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream.

Cook until the soup returns to a low simmer. Serve the soup hot and garnish with fresh parsley and

a dollop of sour cream for an even richer tasting soup.
