Seriously Delish Butternut Squash Soup!
Talk about a fall soup that warms the soul. Butternut squash soup on the stove is a team favorite around here.

What You Need
- Butternut squash: butternut squash is one of my favorite veggies to puree as a soup. We used pre-cubed butternut squash so you don't have to deel with peeling and roasting.
- White onion: white onion adds a sweet and savory flavor to this soup base.
- Granny smith apple: a hint of apple really makes this butternut soup special.
- Olive oil: olive oil is used for roasting.
- Beef broth: Beef broth We know many of you are hoping to make this vegetarian, so you are more than welcome to swap this for veggie broth.
- Spices: Insteady of usinv savory seasonings like curry spice or garlic, we're actually using a few favorite baking spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- Fresh thyme: fresh time is a fresh, yummy herb that pairs wonderfully with the cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Créme fraiche: don't skimp on the créme fraiche! A little swirl of this cheese so so perfect for serving.
How to Make Butternut Squash Soup
Place butternut squash, apple, and onion onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Add a head of garlic to the baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Roast at 375ºF for 30 minutes. Toss the veggies and flip the garlic head over. Roast for another 10-15 minutes or until your butternut squash is fork-tender.
If you end up buying a full butternut squash instead of cubed butternut squash, feel free to use a veggie peeler to peel it and roast it in larger chunks.
If you go this route, you'll likely need to roast it for a longer amount of time until it's form tender.

Soup too thin? Feel free to whisk some flour and broth together and add that into the soup as a thickening agent.
Soup a little too thick? Simply add in a little broth by the 1/4 cup to thin things out.
