Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the acorn squash in half and remove the seeds. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and place them cut side down on a baking sheet. Roast for about 40 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 onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Scoop the roasted squash flesh into the pot and add the vegetable broth, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Use an immersion blender or transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Return the soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream.
  5. Serve the soup hot, garnished with pumpkin seeds and fresh parsley.
