Butternut Squash Soup with Maple Syrup

October 11, 2014momstownRecipeNo comments
This is an easy and basic recipe for a delicious homemade butternut squash soup with maple syrup. There are a lot of local spots in Kitchener-Waterloo to get these ingredients, and fall is the perfect time for this recipe. If you get a big enough butternut squash you can make plenty to freeze and keep ready for a quick family meal, or for when a new baby arrives.
Preparation Time: 30
Cooking Time: 45
Yield:

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons of butter
1 small onion, chopped
1 medium carrot, chopped
2 sweet potatoes, cubed
1 medium butternut squash – peeled, seeded, and cubed
Chicken stock (enough to cover your veggies in the pot)
Maple syrup to taste

1.  Place the entire butternut squash in the oven at 350 degrees until it is softened (the bigger the squash the longer this may take).

2.  Melt the butter in a large pot, and cook the onion, carrot, sweet potatoes, and squash 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Pour in enough of the chicken stock to cover vegetables. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover pot, and simmer 40 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.

3. Transfer the soup to a blender, and blend until smooth. Return to pot, and mix in any remaining stock to attain desired consistency. 

4.  Add in maple syrup to taste.  You may also want to add in some curry powder depending on your family`s preference.
