Preparation
Step 1
Step 1
Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add 1 1/2 cups onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add beans and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until beans are heated through and creamy, about 10 minutes; let cool 10 minutes.
Step 2
Working in batches, transfer soup to a blender and add some cilantro and almonds. Pulse until beans are coarsely chopped but not pureed (do not overprocess). Season with salt and pepper and rewarm in pot. Divide soup among 4 bowls and serve with remaining 1/2 cup onion, cilantro, almonds, avocado, and yogurt
