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.

Dec 8, 2023This 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.
