This butternut squash recipe comes together in one pot and and doesn’t take that long to make! Win, win. Once all of the ingredients have sautéed together you will use an immersion blender to get it nice and creamy.
No immersion blender? Don’t worry! You can transfer the soup (one cup at a time) to a blender to get it nice and smooth. Then transfer it back into your pot or portion out, top and enjoy!

Yes, you can definitely freeze this soup to enjoy later. One way to freeze it is by portioning it out so that you can easily pull one out of the freezer to enjoy anytime!
Do you need to peel butternut squash before roasting or using for this soup?
Yes, in pretty much all cases when roasting or cookie butternut squash you will need to peel it. I find that cutting off the tip and using a regular vegetable peeler works best.

My personal favorite thing to serve with butternut squash soup is a panini sandwich! May I recommend a combination of turkey, cheese, greens, and avocado on sourdough?
