Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 cups chicken broth
1 large butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into chunks
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
2 apples - peeled, cored, and diced
1 leek, thinly sliced (white and pale green parts only)
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons ground allspice
1 ½ teaspoons thyme
6 parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks, or more to taste
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 cup half-and-half

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Pour chicken broth into a large stockpot over medium-high heat; add squash, celery, apples, leek, garlic, allspice, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are completely tender, about 30 minutes.
  • While the vegetables simmer, put parsnips into a large bowl. Pour coconut oil over the parsnips and toss to coat. Spread parsnips onto a baking sheet.
  • Roast parsnips until tender and browned, about 30 minutes; add to soup.
  • Ladle vegetables and liquid into a blender in batches so the blender bowl is no more than half full. Hold lid in place with a towel and pulse blender a few times before leaving on to blend; puree until smooth. Repeat until all soup is pureed.
  • Pour pureed soup into the pot, stir half-and-half into the soup, and cook until hot, about 5 minutes.

Overall, I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This soup was a lot of work for not a lot of payoff. I wouldn't recommend it.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found this soup to be a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

This soup was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less parsnips or maybe a bit of lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.

I'm not a huge fan of butternut squash, but I loved this soup. It was creamy and flavorful, and the roasted vegetables were a nice touch.

This soup was delicious and easy to make. I used frozen butternut squash and parsnips, and it still turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not usually a fan of butternut squash soup, but this recipe changed my mind. The parsnips added a nice sweetness and the spices were perfectly balanced. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was the perfect comfort food.

This soup was absolutely delicious! The butternut squash and parsnips were perfectly roasted, and the soup was creamy and flavorful. I added a bit of extra ginger and cumin, and it was perfect. Will definitely be making this again!
