Ingredients

Servings

• 2 pound Butternut Squash
• 1 pound Acorn Squash
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 clove Garlic
• 4 cup Vegetable Broth
• 1 cup Coconut Milk
• 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Nutmeg

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash and acorn squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place them on a baking sheet, cut side up, and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Roast in the oven for 45 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
2. While the squash is roasting, heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
3. Scoop out the roasted squash from the skin and add it to the pot. Stir in the vegetable broth and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches until smooth.
5. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and garnish with a drizzle of coconut milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
