Hollow out the mini pumpkins, reserving the seeds for later. Place them on a sheet tray along with butternut squash, carnival squash, garlic, shallots, and white onion. Preheat the oven to 400°.
Roast Vegetables and Pumpkins:
Roast the vegetables and hollowed-out mini pumpkins for 1 hour until caramelized and completely tender.

Once roasted, blend the vegetables (excluding pumpkin seeds) with the bone broth until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a pot over low heat.
Stir in Ingredients:
Stir in almond milk, softened butter, salt, freshly cracked black pepper, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, and 1 tbsp of maple syrup. Gently simmer to allow the flavors to blend.
Roast Pumpkin Seeds:
While the soup simmers, toss the reserved pumpkin seeds with olive oil, sea salt and cracked black pepper and roast at 350° for 15-20 minutes, or until golden and crispy.

Plate this velvety soup in the roasted mini pumpkins and top each serving with a generous sprinkle of the roasted pumpkin seeds for a delightful crunch!
