peeled and cubed
1
medium onion

3
cloves
garlic

2
tablespoons
olive oil
3
cups
vegetable broth
1

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the butternut squash cubes on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Roast the squash for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and caramelized.
While the squash roasts, heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sautéing for 5 minutes.
Once the squash is done, add it to the pot with the sautéed onion and garlic. Stir in cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or by transferring in batches to a regular blender.
Stir in heavy cream (if using) and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot.

Additional Notes/Tips to Enhance Flavor
Add a dash of smoked paprika for an extra depth of flavor.
A drizzle of maple syrup can enhance the natural sweetness of the squash.
For a savory twist, top with crispy bacon bits or roasted seeds for crunch.
