Easy to Make Recipe

 

Make sure you have all your vegetables washed, peeled, and chopped before you begin. It’s not necessary to peel the apples. I like to peel mine but the skin will blend nicely into the soup.

 

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and set it aside.

 

In a large bowl, coat the butternut squash, carrots, apples, and red onion with olive oil. Add in the cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice. Season with salt & pepper, as desired, and toss well to combine.

 

Place the seasoned butternut squash mixture onto your lined baking sheet and spread into a single layer.

Place sheet in the oven and roast until the butternut squash is fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Then, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before transferring a quarter of the roasted squash mixture to a blender. I actually prefer to put the veggies into a bowl because I find it easier to use an immersion blender. Add one cup of broth and blend until smooth. Adjust the amount of broth to reach your desired consistency.

Transfer the puree into a large pot and repeat the process with the remaining roasted vegetables and broth. Turn heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, for 5-10 minutes.

 

Remove from heat and serve in your favorite soup bowls. 

 

Another idea is to serve this fall harvest soup as an appetizer. Simply scoop the soup into shot glasses or small ramekins, place on a large serving tray, and enjoy with crunchy toasts.

 

This seasonal dish brings together all the delicious flavors of a fall harvest into an easy-to-make roasted butternut squash soup.
