Add water and simmer until the pumpkin is soft, (about 30 minutes). Purée soup with a hand blender or in a regular blender in batches. Strain through a medium sieve. Add cream, maple syrup and seasoning. Note: the water should cover the ingredients by an inch. Adjust the amount accordingly. Also, add the nutmeg last, just before service.
