Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 8 whole garlic cloves
• 1 medium, diced yellow onion
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 0.25 cup, grated (optional) Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Peel the garlic cloves and add them to the pot. Sauté until the cloves are golden brown and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the rolled oats to the pot and toast them lightly, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking.

Step 7

While the soup is simmering, mash the roasted garlic cloves into a paste using a fork or the side of a knife.

Step 8

Stir the garlic paste into the soup, followed by the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.

Step 9

Using an immersion blender, carefully puree the soup in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches, then return to the pot.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.

Step 11

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve warm.
