Butternut Squash Soup with Apple

Ginger Apple and Coconut Milk Squash Soup

This simple soup recipe really doesn’t need a ton of ingredients.

 

It is naturally flavored with whole foods and then seasoned with a bit of dried thyme and ground paprika.

 

The ginger, apple, garlic, onion, squash and coconut milk base are really all that’s needed for this flavorful and tasty recipe.

I like to serve mine with freshly chopped cilantro, pumpkin seeds and a drizzle of creamy coconut milk.

 

I also love having extra crispy bread on the side to make the meal even heartier!

How to Make Vegan Butternut Squash Soup

Preparing and Roasting the Squash

To make this simple vegan butternut squash soup, start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F, and carefully peeling your squash and cutting off the top and bottom.

 

Then you’ll want to cut it in half and remove all the seeds.

 

Now, chop into roughly one inch cubes and assemble on a baking tray covered with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

 

Add two tablespoons of olive oil and toss to evenly coat, then bake for 25-30 minutes, or until squash is tender when poked with a fork.

Making the Soup Base

To a large pot over medium heat, add two tablespoons of olive oil and the chopped onion. 

 

Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the onion is translucent, and then add the minced ginger and garlic and cook 2-3 more minutes.

 

Finally, peel, core and chop your apple and add to the pot along with the roasted squash, veggie broth, coconut milk, thyme, paprika, salt and pepper.

 

Mix well and cover, then bring to a light boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.

Finishing and Blending Squash Soup

Now it’s time to blend!

 

The easiest way by far is to use an immersion blender and process until smooth.

 

If you don’t have one, simply wait until the soup cools and is warm to touch.

 

In batches, scoop into a blender and process until smooth.

  1. This soup sounds so lovely – I’m amazed in recipes like this using coconut milk, how one would think it would end up like coconut but it really doesn’t. Such a great dairy-free option.
