My favorite recipe is from Bon Apetit (https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/sweet-potato-soup-with-nutmeg-and-maple-syrup) which is behind a paywall. https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/creamy_sweet_potato_soup/ is based on this recipe; just add the maple syrup back into the mix, and save the celery leaves for garnish and their own unique flavor. I have no idea why they left that out; it's a very nice touch.

PS I never use chicken stock. Only veggie stock or water. It cheeses me off to see people adding carnivore stock and weird crap like pork to a perfectly good all-vegetable soup.
