Ingredients - Serves 6

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced zucchini and cook for another 5 minutes, until slightly softened.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the fresh thyme. Season with salt and pepper.
Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, until the zucchini is tender.
Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the soup until smooth.
Stir in the heavy cream and heat the soup for another 2-3 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Serve hot and garnish with fresh thyme leaves, if desired.
