Butternut Squash Soup
Description
Butternut Squash Soup begins by roasting cubed butternut squash, peeled and combined with chopped apple, onion, fresh sage, and spices like cinnamon and paprika, tossed in olive oil until tender. Roasting deepens the flavor of the vegetables.
The roasted mixture is then transferred to a pot, and vegetable broth, coconut milk, grated fresh ginger, nutmeg, and salt are added. The soup is brought to a boil and blended until smooth using an immersion blender or a conventional blender in batches, resulting in a creamy texture with notes of warmth from the spices and brightness from the ginger.
The soup is served with an optional garnish of more coconut milk drizzled on top and a sprinkle of nutmeg, enhancing both presentation and flavor. The combination of roasted squash and apple provides natural sweetness balanced by the savory and aromatic elements.
