The Most Amazing Butternut Squash Soup

Ingredients

Scale
  1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Cut butternut squash in half, scoop out seeds (set aside seeds to roast later!). Place both halves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (skin side down). Rub a small amount of avocado oil on each half, sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake for 45-60 minutes or until fork tender. Take out of the oven and allow to cool.
  2. Warm soup pot over medium heat with avocado oil. Once warm, put diced shallots in. Allow to cook ~3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add all seasonings, pepper, salt, stir to coat and sauté for 2 more minutes.
  3. Scoop out ¾ of the squash, add to soup pot along with coconut milk, almonds, mix well and allow to simmer for 35 minutes. Add broth and allow to simmer for 1520 minutes.
  4. Allow soup to slightly cool. Blend soup in blender (blend in batches!). Add soup back into pot on low heat – taste and adjust seasonings as preferred.
  5. Take the remaining ¼ roasted squash bit by bit and add into soup while squishing/softening with your fingers. Stir into soup.
  6. Enjoy
