Ingredients

30 min
6 servings
  1. 1 1/2 tablespoonsolive oil
  2. 1medium onion
  3. 3garlic cloves minced
  4. 2 poundsbutternut squash peeled seeds removed and cubed
  5. 1 teaspoonsea salt
  6. 1/4 teaspoonground black pepper
  7. 1/2 teaspoonfresh thyme leaves (We also used sage and ginger)
  8. 1 1/2 cupsvegetable broth
  9. 2 cupsSilk Original Almondmilk
  10. 2 teaspoonslime juice

Cooking Instructions

30 min
  1. 1

    In a large stock pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat until shimmering.

  2. 2

    Add in the butternut squash, stir to combine, and sauté for about 7 minutes until the butternut squash releases some flavour and the onions become translucent.

  3. 3

    Add in the salt, pepper, thyme, vegetable broth, almond milk, stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Bring to a boil and then to a simmer for another 10 minutes, until the butternut squash becomes fork tender. Test it with a fork to ensure it is properly cooked through.

  5. 5

    Remove from heat. Pour the soup into a large blender. Now add the lime juice into the blender too. If you're not using a large blender (holds at least 6 cups) then do this in increments. Using the soup setting on your blender, or a very powerful blend option, blend until creamy and smooth. My blender automatically blends for about 3 minutes continuously. OR, you can use an immersion blender and puree the soup ingredients until combined and smooth.

  6. 6

    Taste and add salt and pepper to taste if necessary.

  7. 7

    Serve into bowls and top with garnish - I love extra nutmeg, parsley and a bit of extra almond milk or a touch of coconut milk on top (OPTIONAL).
