Air Fryer Butternut Squash Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Toss butternut squash with olive oil in a large bowl. Add squash pieces to the air fryer basket. Cook until lightly browned, stirring every 3 to 4 minutes, about 22 minutes total.
• Transfer to a bowl or serving plate and sprinkle seasoning blend evenly over the top. Garnish with fresh rosemary.

Steps:

• Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Toss the butternut squash, carrots, bell pepper, onion, olive oil, granulated garlic, ginger, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper together in a large bowl until well combined. Transfer to the air fryer basket. Fry until golden brown and tender, tossing halfway through, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer the browned vegetables to a large pot or Dutch oven and add the broth and cream. Use an immersion blender to blend the mixture on medium-high until very smooth. (Alternatively, blend the mixture in a standard blender, first letting it cool for 5 minutes, then transferring it to the blender, filling only halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until very smooth, scrapping down the sides of the blender carafe with a rubber spatula as needed; pour the blended mixture back into the pot.)
• Cook the soup over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is just simmering, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and top with pepitas, drizzle with crème fraîche or yogurt and sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 375°. In a large bowl, toss squash, orange juice concentrate, ginger and pepper. Transfer to greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until squash is tender, 20-25 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Stir in butter before serving.
