  • 3 lb roasted butternut squash*
  • 2 tbsp butter (or olive oil, for dairy free option)
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onion
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 6 cups vegetable or chicken broth**
  • drizzle of heavy cream (optional, for garnish)
  • toasted pumpkin seeds (optional, for garnish)

Preparation

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Plan ahead: You will need Roasted Butternut Squash cubes for this recipe. As stated in the blog post, you can either make them now, or use leftovers. If making them now, follow the instructions in that post and get the squash in the oven before you start sauteing the onion and such for this soup, since roasting takes about 30 minutes.
