Prep 15 minutes mins
Cook 20 minutes mins
Total 35 minutes mins
Recipe: Equipment
Recipe: Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger (or 1 teaspoon powdered ginger)
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh or dried thyme leaves, finely chopped
- 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 4 cups vegetable stock (or use chicken stock for a non-vegan soup)
- 3/4 cup coconut milk (or use half and half for a rich, non-vegan soup)
- fresh thyme sprigs, coconut cream (or heavy cream) for garnish
Recipe: Instructions
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the olive oil.
Add the onion, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper, and thyme, and saute until the onion is soft and transparent.
Add the cubed butternut squash and toss in the onion mixture.
Add the vegetable stock and stir to combine (You might need to add a little more or less stock, depending on the size of your squash. The liquid level should be just slightly lower than the squash).
Add the lid to the pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the soup reaches a boil turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the butternut squash is very tender when you pierce it with a fork.
Remove the soup from the heat and add the coconut milk.
Puree with a hand-held immersion blender, or puree in batches in a regular counter-top blender.
Serve immediately with a garnish of fresh thyme and some coconut cream or yogurt, or store in airtight containers in the fridge or freezer.
Recipe: Notes
Storage Instructions
This soup is great for meal prep because it keeps in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
