Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds; reserve, if desired (see Cook's Note). Drizzle cut side of squash with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Place, cut-side down, on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast until squash is very tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 50 to 55 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 15 minutes.
- In a 6-quart pot or Dutch oven, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add shallots and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook until shallots are soft and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add ginger and coriander; cook until very fragrant, 2 minutes. Stir in broth, 1 cup water, and 1 teaspoon salt. Scoop flesh from cooled squash into pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring a few times, 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.
- Working in batches, puree soup in a blender until smooth. Return to pot; heat over medium. Whisk in coconut milk. Cook until warmed through, 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve, drizzled with more coconut milk and sprinkled with toasted squash seeds, if desired. Soup can be stored in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 1 week.
VEGAN BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH GINGER, APPLE, AND COCONUT MILK
Butternut squash and ginger are a wonderful combination. Instead of cream, I use coconut milk and I also like to add a carrot and apple for natural sweetness.

Tips:
- Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash that is firm and heavy for its size, with a deep orange color. Avoid squash that has soft spots or blemishes.
- Roast the butternut squash before using it in the soup: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the squash in the oven or on a grill.
- Use a good quality coconut milk: The coconut milk is a key ingredient in this soup, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for coconut milk that is unsweetened and has a high fat content.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices: This soup is a great canvas for experimenting with different spices. You can add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat, or a teaspoon of curry powder for a more exotic flavor.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: This soup is delicious on its own, but it's also great with a variety of toppings. You can add a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of chopped cilantro, or a few roasted pumpkin seeds.
