In a large pot, heat the oil (or water/broth) over medium low heat and saute the onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and cook 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic fragrant.
Add the minced ginger and cook for 1 minute.
Add the chopped carrots, stir, and cover with the lid. Allow the carrots to steam for 5 minutes. Stir once or twice to make sure the carrots aren’t sticking. Add a dash of water or broth if needed.
Add the vegetable broth, raise the heat a bit, cover the pot with the lid and bring the soup to a boil.
Lower the heat and simmer with the lid on for 15 minutes or until the carrots are soft and easily pierced with a fork.
Use an immersion blender or carefully transfer the soup to a stand up blender if it can process hot liquids. Blend until smooth.
Stir in the milk and maple syrup and heat the soup over low heat for another few minutes until heated through and all the flavours have combined. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed, more maple syrup if desired or even some cayenne pepper for heat.
Top with chilli miso roasted chickpeas to serve!

*Approximate Cost: CAD $4.49 using our homemade broth! CAD $7.53 with store-bought broth.

*Feel free to omit the milk and use more broth in its place. The soup will taste less creamy but still very tasty.
