Instructions
Roast the Vegetables - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the sweet potatoes, onion quarters, and garlic bulb on a baking tray. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and spices. Drizzle with olive oil. Roast for 40-50 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized.

Peel and Prepare - Remove the tray from the oven and cover with foil or a clean towel for 15 minutes. Once cooled, peel the sweet potatoes and squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins.
Blend the Soup - In a large pot, combine the roasted sweet potatoes, onions, and garlic with the broth, single cream, Parmesan, and Cheddar. Blend the mixture until smooth using an immersion blender or in batches in a countertop blender.

Reheat with Herbs - Add the thyme and bay leaf to the pot. Simmer the soup over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to let the flavors meld. Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves, 2 med Bay leaves
Make the Garlic Toast - Brush the baguette slices with garlic-infused olive oil and toast under the broiler or in a preheated oven until golden. Sprinkle with grated cheese and return to the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
