Soup Ingredients

Method

Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash in half, remove the seeds, and peel the skin. Cut it into cubes. Dice the onion and chop the apple, peeling if desired. Mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Roast the Vegetables

    Toss the butternut squash, onion, and apple in olive oil, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

  3. 3

    Cook the Garlic

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  4. 4

    Blend the Soup

    Once the roasted vegetables are done, add them to the pot with the garlic. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender to purée the soup until smooth.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Return the soup to the pot, stir in nutmeg and fresh thyme. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Heat through and serve hot.
