Ingredients

  • 1 Onion chopped
  • 2 Celery ribs chopped
  • 2 Carrots chopped
  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 1 Squash peeled and chopped, Butternut or Acorn Squash works great
  • 2 Apples peeled, and chopped
  • 4 cups Chicken or Vegetable Broth
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 Pinch each of nutmeg, cinnamon, cayenne, salt and pepper
  • Sour Cream optional

Instructions

  • In a large pot melt butter over medium heat. Add in onion and celery, sauté for 5 minutes.
  • Add the squash, apple, carrots and broth. Bring to boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes or so, until the squash and carrots are tender.
  • Use an immersion blender to puree the soup. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can use a standard blender and puree in batches and transfer back to pot.
  • Add pinches of nutmeg, cinnamon, cayenne, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in milk and cook over medium heat until warmed.
  • Top with a spoonful of sour cream and enjoy!
