Creamy Roasted Garlic Butternut Squash Soup 

My favorite way to warm up during the winter is with some hot soup. Here is a healthy, rich soup to keep you and your family warm this cold winter. This recipe is also another way to get some more nutritious vegetables into your diet. By adding Kelapo coconut oil, this light dish will keep you feeling full for hours. To add a bit of texture to your dish, I recommend sprinkling some roasted pumpkin seeds on top to serve. Enjoy!  

Bowl of butternut squash soup with kelapo coconut oil

Ingredients: 

  • 2 ½ pounds butternut squash (peeled and pre-cut into chunks)  
  • 3 medium carrots (peeled and split lengthwise into chunks)  
  • 1 medium yellow onion (peeled and quartered)  
  • 10 – 12 garlic cloves  
  • 2 tablespoons Kelapo coconut oil  
  • 2 cans (14 oz) full fat coconut milk  
  • 3 cups vegetable broth  
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt  
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper  

For Serving: 

  • roasted, salted pumpkin seeds  

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place 2 ½ pounds of precut squash, 3 peeled and precut medium carrots, 1 quartered medium yellow onion, and 10 – 12 garlic cloves. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of Kelapo coconut oil over the vegetables and toss until evenly coated.  
  2. Roast the vegetables for about 45 minutes; or until tender. Take them out halfway through the cook time to stir.  
  3. Next, transfer the roasted vegetables into a large pot. Shake one 14 oz can of full-fat coconut milk and measure out 2 tablespoons to set aside for later. Add the remaining coconut milk from the can to the pot as well as another full 14 oz can.   
  4. Then, add 3 cups of vegetable broth to the pot and stir; bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Reduce the medium-high heat and let boil for 5 minutes.  
  5. Remove the pot from the heat. Using aan immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. If you’d like a thinner soup, add more vegetable broth.  
  6. Lastly, add 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper to the soup.  
  7. Enjoy!
