Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Arrange butternut squash halves, carrot chunks, sweet potato chunks, and whole head garlic on the prepared baking sheet; drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and season with rosemary, salt, and black pepper. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes; flip sweet potato and carrot chunks. Continue roasting until vegetables are tender, 20 to 30 minutes more. Set aside to cool. (40-50 minutes)

04

Step

Remove squash flesh from skin using a spoon. Cut sweet potato and carrot into small pieces. Squeeze roasted garlic from skin. (15 minutes)

05

Step

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium heat; add celery and onion. Season with nutmeg and cayenne pepper; cook until celery and onion are tender, about 8 minutes. Add apples; cook and stir until apples begin to get hot, about 2 minutes. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Add vegetable broth and apple cider to the pot; bring just to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer for 30 minutes. (35 minutes)

07

Step

Add squash, sweet potato, carrot, and garlic to the pot. Purée with an immersion blender until smooth. (5 minutes)

For a deeper flavor, consider roasting the butternut squash a day ahead of time.
If you prefer a sweeter soup, use a sweeter variety of apple like Honeycrisp or Fuji.
A swirl of cream or a dollop of yogurt adds a luxurious touch to the finished soup.
This soup freezes well, making it a perfect make-ahead meal.
