This creamy sweet potato soup, which gets sweetness from apples spice from chipotle peppers and fresh ginger, is a great source of Vitamins A and C. It’s also perfect for dunking - try it with cheese quesadillas for a warm winter meal. Adapted from Food + Wine Magazine .

Instructions
Heat the oil in a 3 quart soup pot set over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the apples, celery, and sweet potatoes and cook for 5 minutes.
Add the stock, water and cinnamon stick and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until vegetables are soft - about 30 minutes. Discard the cinnamon stick and stir in the chipotle pepper.
Working in batches as needed, puree the soup in a blender until smooth. Return to pot to keep warm.
