Report
A simple, comforting winter soup made with roasted acorn squash.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 acorn squash large
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1 yellow onion chopped, medium
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 cups almond milk unsweetened
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- sour cream optional, or plain Greek yogurt, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
- Chop the tip and tail off the acorn squash, then cut it in half length-wise. Scoop out the seeds and discard them (or you can roast them like pumpkin seeds--they're delicious!).
- Drizzle the squash flesh with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and cinnamon. Place both squash halves on a baking sheet, cut-side down. Roast the acorn squash for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the flesh is very soft. Use a spoon to remove the squash flesh from the skin; discard the skin.
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until browned, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add the squash, sautéed onion and garlic, almond milk, and vegetable broth to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt, if desired.
Notes
- If you have an immersion blender, you can cook the onion and garlic in a Dutch oven, then add the remaining ingredients and blend directly in the pot.
