Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp dried sage
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp allspice
  • 1 quart water
  • 1 quart chicken stock
  • 1 medium butternut squash, peeled, seeded and chopped into 1-2 inch pieces
  • 3 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and chopped into ½ inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • Juice from half a lemon
  • 3 tbsp whole milk or heavy cream
  • Cooking Directions

    Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over high heat.

    Add onion, salt, pepper, sage, nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice.

    Saute onions, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add butternut squash and apples.

    Toss to combine, and let cook for about 3 minutes. Add water, chicken stock and brown sugar.

    Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for 25 – 30 minutes.

    Puree with an immersion blender or in small batches in a food processor. BE CAREFUL WHEN BLENDING HOT LIQUIDS.

    Return all liquid to pot, if using food processor.

    Combine 3 tbsp of water and corn starch in a small bowl, to create a slurry.

    Make sure there are no lumps. Add to pureed soup, as needed, depending on your desired thickness.
