How to Make Butternut Squash Soup Recipe

Step 1

The first thing you need to do is prepare the squash: Start by carefully cutting the butternut squash in half, then peel and remove the seeds. Cut it into medium-sized cubes.

Step 2

Second: Cook the vegetables: In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and apple. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Then add the garlic and cook for another minute. Next, add the squash and stock: Add the squash cubes to the pot with the vegetable stock. Stir everything together.

Step 3

Now, try the seasoning and simmer: Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the squash is very tender.

Step 4

Blend the soup: Turn off the heat. Use a hand blender to blend the soup until smooth. If you don’t have one, carefully transfer the soup to the blender in batches. Make sure to let the soup cool slightly before blending if using a blender. Then add cream optional: For extra creaminess, add heavy cream or coconut milk. Heat gently for a few more minutes.
