Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 450°F.

  3. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until onion is tender, stirring once.
  4. Combine the vegetable broth, pumpkin and tomato mixture in a Dutch oven. Process bisque, in batches, in a blender or with an immersion blender until smooth. Return to the pan.
  5. Whisk in the sugar, oregano, paprika, cinnamon and cayenne pepper. Bring bisque just to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in cream; heat through. Gradually whisk in fontina until melted. Remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Top bisque with croutons. Garnish with oregano if desired.
