Vegan Butternut Squash Soup Recipe

 

Ingredients :

  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter, (or sub olive oil)
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
  • 1 medium (about 3 lbs) butternut squash, cleaned, seeded, and cubed (no need to peel it)
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • ¾ teaspoon salt, (or to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon ground sage
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk, (optional, for extra creaminess)

Instructions :

  • A large soup pot should be used to melt the vegan butter. After adding the onions and garlic, sauté the mixture for around five minutes, or until the onions become translucent and begin to brown.
  • In a large saucepan, combine the squash cubes, vegetable broth, salt, nutmeg, sage, and pepper. The squash should be cooked until it can be easily pierced with a fork, which should take between 15 and 25 minutes. Cover and bring to a boil.
  • Making sure not to overfill the blender, carefully transfer the soup to a blender while working in batches. This will prevent the blender from exploding. Until the mixture is entirely smooth and creamy, blend.
  • There is also the option of using an immersion blender, which can be useful in certain circumstances; but, I find that a standing blender is more likely to achieve the desired results of making the soup extremely smooth and creamy.
  • When you have finished blending the soup, place it back into the saucepan and bring it back up to a simmer. If you decided to use coconut milk, stir it in. If you so choose, serve the dish hot with an additional drizzle of coconut milk.

    Coconut milk should be stirred in after returning to the pot.

 

  • When you have finished blending the soup, place it back into the saucepan and bring it back up to a simmer. If you decided to use coconut milk, stir it in. You may serve it hot in bowls, and if you want, you can top it with an additional drizzle of coconut milk.
  • Store or freeze the soup by first allowing it to completely cool down and then transferring it to a container that is airtight. You may either freeze it or store it in the refrigerator for up to four days each.

Notes :

Storage/ Freezing: Wait until the soup has completely cooled down before transferring it to a container that can seal tightly. You may either freeze it or store it in the refrigerator for up to four days each.

Coconut milk substitute: I really enjoy the richness and creaminess that this soup gets from using full-fat coconut milk, which is the sort that comes in a can. On the other hand, if you would rather, you may replace it with vegan heavy cream that is not sweetened, or you can completely eliminate it, and the soup would still be excellent.

For oil-free: You should to leave out the vegan butter and substitute it with a sauté made with water or broth.
