Autumn Recipe: Pumpkin Spice Butternut Squash Soup

As the days grow colder and the leaves begin to change color, I find myself craving warm and comforting dishes to cozy up with. Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique twist on a classic autumn soup – Pumpkin Spice Butternut Squash Soup. This creamy and flavorful soup is the perfect blend of seasonal ingredients that will warm you from the inside out.

To start off, gather the following ingredients:

• 1 small butternut squash (about 700g), peeled and diced
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, sliced
• 1 apple, peeled and chopped
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 2 tbsp maple syrup
• Salt and pepper, to taste

For this recipe, you will need the following kitchen tools:

• soup pot
• immersion blender
• knife
• cutting board
• wooden spoon

Begin by heating some oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, apple, and grated ginger, cooking until softened. Stir in the pumpkin pie spice and cook for another minute to release the flavors. Add the diced butternut squash, vegetable broth, and maple syrup, bringing the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender.

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Stir in the coconut milk and season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the flavors to meld together over low heat for an additional 5 minutes before serving.

This Pumpkin Spice Butternut Squash Soup weighs approximately 1300g once cooked. It makes about 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 325g. One serving of this soup is estimated to be around 250 calories.

One tip to enhance the flavors of this soup is to garnish each bowl with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of toasted pumpkin seeds for added texture and contrast.
