Carrot and coriander soup in a slow cooker is a must make.

Big flavor, simple prep. This soup is loaded with bold spices like ginger, coriander, and turmeric, balanced by creamy coconut milk-and it all comes together in the slow cooker with minimal effort.

Bonus! It's healthy comfort food. Packed with veggies and naturally gluten-free, dairy-free (with plant-based yogurt), and low in calories, this soup is as nourishing as it is satisfying.

Perfect for busy days. Toss everything in the crockpot, walk away, and come back to a warm, flavorful meal that feels like a hug in a bowl.

Carrot Soup Slow Cooker Ingredients

Ingredients needed for making carrot soup on a white board.

Here are the ingredients you will need to make this slow cooker carrot ginger soup:

  • Carrots: peel and cut large carrots or use baby carrots to save on prep time.
  • Onion: I suggest using white, yellow, or sweet varieties.
  • Celery
  • Fresh Garlic: use fresh minced garlic or canned minced garlic based on preference.
  • Ground Corriander: coriander is a very traditional spice used in Indian foods such as curries, soups, or stews.
  • Fresh Ginger Root: be sure to peel and finely grate your fresh roots for the best flavor and that it infuses into your soup.
  • Fresh Tumeric Root: again, be sure to peel and finely grate your fresh turmeric root.
  • Fresh Squeezed Lemon: a freshly squeezed lemon will yield approximately 2 tablespoons. Use half of a lemon to get 1 tablespoon for this recipe.
  • Canned Coconut Milk: coconut milk adds a creamy texture to the soup, and the flavor complements the fresh spices and roots in this recipe. It is also used in many Indian dishes, such as curry, soups, or stews.
  • Plain Greek Yogurt (or a plant based substitute): adds brightness, creaminess, and tang. The yogurt can be omitted, but add in lemon or lime juice to taste for tang as a substitute - or use a vegan plant-based substitute.
  • Vegetable Broth
  • Kosher Salt
  • Ground Black Pepper
  • Optional: garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.

For exact ingredient quantities, please see the recipe card below!

Variations and Substitutions

  • Sweeten with honey, brown sugar, or a sugar substitute if preferred.
  • Give it a spicy kick by adding red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper. You can also add hot peppers into your slow cooker when all the other vegetables are cooking to infuse the flavor better. Choose your favorite pepper, remove the stem and seeds, and add to the crockpot.
  • Use heavy cream instead of coconut milk if preferred.
  • Omit any ingredients as you desire.
  • Use ¼ to ½ teaspoon dried powdered ginger or turmeric if you don't have fresh.

How to Serve Crockpot Carrot Soup

Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Garnish your soup with fresh cilantro or chives, and toasted nuts. I used roasted and salted pepitas.

Drizzle extra coconut milk or top with a dollop of sour cream.

Add a small side salad to pair with your creamy carrot ginger soup. Use ginger vinegarette for a complimentary flavor.

Serve with your favorite warm crusty bread to soak up every last drop of soup!

Carrot Soup Slow Cooker Tips

Coax even more flavor from this soup by sauteeing the vegetables in 2 tablespoons of olive oil or butter until golden.

If your soup is too thick, add additional coconut milk, Greek yogurt, or vegetable broth to thin it so it is easier to blend to your desired consistency.

You can use a food processor or regular blender if you do not have a handheld immersion blender. Blend in batches if needed. Be careful it's hot! Blend until your desired consistency, and enjoy!

Carrot and Coriander Soup FAQ's

How to store it

Allow your soup to cool down before transferring to an airtight container and storing it in the fridge for up to 4 days. This soup holds and reheats very well!

Can I freeze carrot soup?

Yes! You can freeze this soup in an airtight container for up to 4 months. When you are ready to reheat, remove your container from the freezer and put it in the fridge overnight. Reheat in a pot on the stove until your desired temperature is reached.

Is carrot and coriander soup good for you?

Yes! This soup is loaded with fresh veggies and herbs that are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Our soup is low in calories, carbs, and sugar which is a healthy meal any time of the day!

Should you stir slow cooker soup?

Stirring your soup once about halfway through cooking is a good idea to make sure everything is cooked to the same tenderness. Beware that every time you lift the lid, it will lower the temperature inside your slow cooker and take longer to cook.
