Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 shallot, peeled and minced
1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
1/4 cup water
3 cups peeled, seeded and cubed butternut squash
1/2 cup chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned
3/4 cup apple cider
1/4 cup light sour cream
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/2 unpeeled red Rome or Delicious apple, cored and finely diced
Cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a medium-size saucepan over low heat. Add the shallot, garlic and water. Cook until the shallot and garlic are softened, being careful not to let them burn, about 2 minutes. Add the squash and the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer until the squash is soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Carefully pour the mixture into a blender jar. Holding the top down with a towel, blend until smooth. Add the cider, light sour cream and salt. Continue blending until well combined. Soup can be made ahead up to this point. Place in a clean saucepan over low heat until heated through. Season with additional salt if needed.
  • Ladle the soup among 4 bowls. Garnish with the diced red apple and cracked black pepper. Serve immediately.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. It was still very flavorful.
