Ingredients
Scale
1 medium butternut squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the butternut squash in half, remove the seeds, and drizzle with olive oil. Place face down on a baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes until tender.
In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and carrots, cooking until softened.
Scoop the roasted squash out of its skin and add it to the pot with the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 15 minutes.
Blend the mixture using an immersion blender until smooth.
Stir in heavy cream and season with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Heat through before serving.
Notes
For a vegan option, substitute heavy cream with coconut milk.
Add croutons or pumpkin seeds as a garnish for extra crunch.
