Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Squash and Broth

    Add the cubed butternut squash to the pot, along with the vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.

  3. 3

    Season and Simmer

    Stir in the cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the squash is tender.

  4. 4

    Blend the Soup

    Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and drizzle with heavy cream if desired. Enjoy your warm butternut squash soup!
