Anotha’ butternut squash soup to add to our steadily growing collection.
And you know I’m gonna say this one is the new fav. I had this butternut squash apple soup for dinner every day for 4 days straight, guys. No lie.
Stepping up in cozy food land today we have like eleven billion fall flavors and you’re gonna love them all dearly.
We got roasted butternut squash + apples. Candied ginger. All ‘dat creaminess. Etc, etc. One of those soups I could never get sick of when it’s chilly as heck outside.
So first things first, let’s get some roasty business going! Cube up a medium butternut squash and quarter a few apples. Lay ’em out in a single layer on a baking sheet, drizzle with a little olive oil + fresh minced sage and SEND IT…..to the oven. (had to, sorry)
Once everything is all super soft and tender, it’s time to let the blender take care of the rest of business. Throw the squash and apples in the blender and pour warmed chicken stock over top. Toss some candied ginger in there and a few spices. COMMENCE BLENDING.
P.S. a cute little cream swirl is an absolute necessity with this roasted butternut squash apple soup, guys. Just necessary.
Hello, lover. I’m obv talking to that cream swirl.
Be ready to eat nothing but this soup for the rest of your life, friends. ???

I adore butternut squash soup with candied ginger — it’s one of my favorite combinations! This soup sounds so delicious with the apple too. I’d love a big bowl!

Hello Sarah! This soup sounds amazing! I would like to use fresh ginger instead of the candied one. How much should I use and how and when do I cook it? Thanks!
Sarah says
I would recommend roasting the ginger with the butternut squash, Denise! 🙂

What can I use in place of the 1/2 & 1/2 to make this dairy free?

Hi Tarra. I would recommend canned coconut milk in place of the half and half. 🙂
