This Roasted Butternut Squash Soup is so incredibly creamy, cozy, and delicious. Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, Vegetarian, and Whole 30. This soup is full of flavor and so easy to make!
This is one of my favorite soups to make in the Fall because it’s ultra comforting but also really heathy.
How do you make Roasted Butternut Squash Soup?
It’s actually quite easy! It comes together super easily and in just TWO simple steps.
Step 1 is simply just roasting the butternut squash and veggies on a large sheet pan until cooked and soft.
Step 2 is even easier believe it or not! Toss all of the roasted goodness into your blender or food processor (I prefer using my vitamix because it makes the creamiest soups in the blink of an eye!), add a little coconut cream and vegetable broth and blend it up!!
I love using coconut cream in this recipe because not only does it add a subtle sweetness to the soup, it makes it silky smooth and oh so delicious!
However, if you prefer not to use coconut cream, you can absolutely sub heavy cream. Top it off with pepitas for a little crunch and go to town. I hope you enjoy and love!
