Roasted Tomato Soup Recipe
Easy, creamy roasted Tomato Soup with fresh tomatoes, canned tomatoes, onion, garlic, vegetable stock, fresh rosemary, and fresh basil.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 3 pounds ripe plum tomatoes cut in half lengthwise
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large onion chopped
- 6 garlic cloves minced
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 28-ounce canned whole peeled tomatoes with their juice
- 1 ½ cups fresh basil leaves packed
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 1 quart low sodium vegetable broth
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss together the tomatoes, 1/4 cup olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the tomatoes in 1 layer on a baking sheet and roast for 35–40 minutes.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add onions and red pepper flakes, and cook, stirring occasionally until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 more minute. Add the canned tomatoes, basil, rosemary, and vegetable broth.
- Transfer the oven-roasted tomatoes (and their liquid) into the stockpot. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer uncovered for 40 minutes. Use an immersion blender or regular blender to blend the soup to a smooth consistency.

Notes
Note: This recipe is inspired by the roasted tomato basil soup from the fabulous Ina Garten.
My Top Tip: Give the tomatoes room to roast. Keep them in a single layer with space between the halves. If the baking sheet is crowded, use two or roast in batches so the tomatoes can brown instead of steam.
Storage: Store leftover soup in an airtight container in the fridge. It'll last up to 5 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave until warmed through. If you're serving with cream, I recommend adding it after you reheat the soup so the cream doesn't curdle.
Freezing: Cool the soup completely after cooking, then place it in freezer-safe containers or bags. It'll last in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge and reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
