Ingredients

2 lbs ripe tomatoes, halved

1 large head of garlic

1 medium yellow onion, chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon butter

1½ cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)

½ cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

½ teaspoon dried oregano

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1 teaspoon sugar (optional)

Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish

Cherry tomato slices and cracked pepper, for topping (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange halved tomatoes cut-side up on a baking sheet. Slice the top off the garlic head, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and place next to tomatoes. Roast for 35–40 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 5–7 minutes.
Squeeze roasted garlic cloves from skins and add to the pot along with roasted tomatoes. Pour in vegetable broth and stir.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth (or blend in batches). Return to the pot if using a countertop blender.
Stir in heavy cream, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and sugar. Simmer for 10 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning. Ladle into bowls and garnish with cream swirls, cherry tomato slices, and fresh herbs.
