Roasted Butternut squash soup

 

Happy First day of FALL!!!

Here in Ohio the weather has decided to dress up for the day. It is chilly but sunny and there is a perfect fall smell in the air.

And what is better to eat on a perfect fall day then a creamy, rich, just- sweet- enough soup made with a beautiful fall squash fresh out of the garden?

Um… Nothing!

I was introduced to this deliciousness by my friend Holly, who concocted it in her kitchen and brought it to our book club. I’m not sure of her exact recipe, but this is my “copy-cat” one!

Here’s what you’ll need for this Butternut Squash Soup-

1- Large butternut squash
2-3 Apples- I used Macintosh
2- Cups Chicken Broth
2- Cups 1/2 & 1/2
1-tsp Cinnamon
1/2- Large Onion chopped
1-tsp salt
1-Tbs Olive Oil
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Next cut the butternut squash in half, remove seeds,  and quarter your apples.
Lay the butternut squash on the baking sheet and lay the apples on top.

  This lets the sweet juiciness of the apples sink into the squash while it bakes. Bake for about 1 hr. You’ll know it’s done when you can easily poke it with a fork.
Remove the squash from the oven and set aside.
In a stock pot combine your onion and olive oil and saute until the onion is translucent.
Add in your chicken broth, salt, and cinnamon.
By now your squash should be cool enough to handle. Scrape out the insides of the apples and squash and add to the stock pot.
Bring to a boil and then turn on low, allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
Using an immersion blender blend together until smooth.
Remove from the heat and blend in your 1/2 and 1/2.
Now your butternut squash soup is ready to eat!!  Serve it up with some fresh bread, and enjoy the taste of fall!!

    It’s finally cooler here in Maryland too! Happy Fall! ๐Ÿ™‚ Your soup looks wonderful!!! I love how you laid the apples on top of the butternut squash, that’s a great idea and I’m sure it adds great flavor! I’m going to add this to my “fall cooking” list! Thanks for the inspiration!!!! ๐Ÿ™‚

    I have a butternut squash on the counter just waiting for the perfect recipe. Bet this would be good even if we eat right after baking it with the apples on top! I’m going for the soup though. Pinned!
