For a vegan version, substitute the butter with olive oil and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Coconut cream makes a great substitute for heavy cream.
To enhance the caramelized flavor, roast the butternut squash in the oven before adding it to the pot. Toss the cubed squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.

    This soup is incredible! The caramelization really brings out the squash's sweetness. I added a swirl of maple syrup at the end for extra richness.

  • Polly Kautzer

    The best butternut squash soup I've ever had! The directions were easy to follow, and the results were restaurant-quality. I'll definitely be making this again.

  • Michel Goldner

    I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. I love the simplicity of the ingredients and the depth of flavor. I sometimes add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little kick.
