ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP



Roasted Butternut Squash Soup image

This homemade butternut squash soup is the best I've ever tasted! This recipe is super creamy (yet cream-less) and full of delicious butternut flavor. Leftover soup tastes even better the next day. Recipe yields about 4 bowls or 6 cups of soup.

Categories     Soup

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large butternut squash (about 3 pounds), halved vertically* and seeds removed
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 cup chopped shallot (about 1 large shallot bulb)
1 teaspoon salt
4 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
3 to 4 cups (24 to 32 ounces) vegetable broth, as needed
1 to 2 tablespoons butter, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the butternut squash on the pan and drizzle each half with just enough olive oil to lightly coat the squash on the inside (about 1/2 teaspoon each). Rub the oil over the inside of the squash and sprinkle it with salt and pepper.
  • Turn the squash face down and roast until it is tender and completely cooked through, about 40 to 50 minutes (don't worry if the skin or flesh browns-that's good for flavor). Set the squash aside until it's cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large soup pot, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat until shimmering (if your blender has a soup preset, use a medium skillet to minimize dishes.) Add the chopped shallot and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the shallot has softened and is starting to turn golden on the edges, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, stirring frequently. Transfer the contents to your stand blender (see notes on how to use an immersion blender instead).
  • Use a large spoon to scoop the butternut squash flesh into your blender. Discard the tough skin. Add the maple syrup, nutmeg and a few twists of freshly ground black pepper to the blender. Pour in 3 cups vegetable broth, being careful not to fill the container past the maximum fill line (you can work in batches if necessary, and stir in any remaining broth later).
  • Securely fasten the lid. Blend on high (or select the soup preset, if available), being careful to avoid hot steam escaping from the lid. Stop once your soup is ultra creamy and warmed through.
  • If you would like to thin out your soup a bit more, stir in the remaining cup of broth. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil, to taste, and blend well. Taste and stir in more salt and pepper, if necessary.
  • If your soup is piping hot from the blending process, you can pour it into serving bowls. If not, pour it back into your soup pot and warm the soup over medium heat, stirring often, until it's nice and steamy. I like to top individual bowls with some extra black pepper.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH CREAM SOUP WITH GINGER



Roasted Butternut Squash Cream Soup with Ginger image

This is our favorite butternut squash soup and the whole family loves it. I usually make a huge pot of soup and freeze parts of it before adding the cream. I like my soup thick, so I don't add a ton of vegetable broth, but feel free to thin it out with more broth.

EASY ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH GINGER & COCONUT MILK



Easy Roasted Butternut Squash Soup with Ginger & Coconut Milk image

A gorgeous, velvety soup that's full of flavor. It's oh-so easy to make, too - no peeling or dicing, just roast your butternut halves, peel off the skin, an blend the squash with ginger, vegetable broth, coconut milk, and a tiny splash of maple syrup. Yummmm.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium (approximately 2 1/2 pound butternut squash, rinsed, halved and seeded)
2 teaspoons + 1 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
1/2 medium yellow onion (diced (about 1 cup))
1 1/2 - 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger (about 1 thumb-sized piece)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or sea salt + more to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper + more to taste*
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1 15-ounce can full-fat coconut milk (lite works too; the soup will just be a bit thinner/less rich overall)
Pepitas
Roasted butternut squash seeds that you scooped out
Croutons
Parsley
Coconut milk
Dash of smoked paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Using a sharp, sturdy knife, carefully cut off the stem of the butternut squash, then cut the squash in half vertically. Scoop out the seeds and either discard or save for roasting. Brush the inside of each half with the 2 teaspoons olive oil and place cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until a fork easily pierces the flesh, about 45 minutes. Remove squash halves from oven and set aside to cool a bit.
  • Set a medium pot over low heat. When hot, add the olive oil and then the onion. Sweat the onion, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent but not golden, about 8 minutes. (To sweat onion, make sure your heat is low and you can barely hear a sizzle). Add 1 1/2 cups of the broth, ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and maple syrup. Bring to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 5 minutes.
  • Peel the skins off of the cooked butternut squash and add cooked flesh to the pot. Using an immersion blender or working with a countertop blender in batches, puree the entire mixture.
  • Return the puree to the pan (if you are using a countertop blender; if you used an immersion blender, you're already there!) Stir in the coconut milk. Bring back to a simmer. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. If you prefer your soup to be thinner, add the remaining broth.
  • Remove from heat, ladle into bowls, and add garnishes if desired. Serve.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keeps for about 3 days.

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 with blemishes or soft spots.
  • Roast the squash before using it in the soup. Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the squash, cut it in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and brush the flesh with olive oil. Place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 30-40 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and made with real vegetables.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. The recipe calls for ginger and maple syrup, but you can also add other spices to taste. Some other good options include cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish. A garnish will add a pop of color and flavor to the soup. Some good options include chopped parsley, crumbled bacon, or roasted pumpkin seeds.

Conclusion:

Butternut squash soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a cold night. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the best butternut squash soup ever.
