Rosemary Cinnamon Roasted Butternut Squash Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix butternut squash cubes, garlic, rosemary, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well coated. Spread mixture into a large baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until squash is caramelized and golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut each butternut squash in half Peel, seed, and scoop out the fibers Coat inside with vegetable oil and place face-down on a baking sheet Roast at 375 for 25 minutes (until tender) Transfer both to a large pot (8 quarts) and add chicken broth, rosemary, and orange zest Bring to boil over medium-high heat Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes Transfer to a food processor or blender and process until smooth Season with salt and pepper Return to pot to keep warm or transfer to bowls (best served hot!) Combine sour cream and heavy cream in mixing bowl.
• Decoratively swirl a small amount of cream mixture into soups as a garnish.
• Or, garnish with rosemary sprigs.

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
• Add butternut squash, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until squash start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
• Add cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
• Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until squash is tender, about 10 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
• Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

Steps:

• Roast the butternut squash, flesh side down onto a lightly oiled roasting pan for 40 to 45 minutes in a 425 degree oven.
• In the mean time, sautee the onion, ginger, and garlic in butter until soft.
• Add the broth, simmer for ten minutes.
• Add pulp from the butternut squash (that you've scooped out).
• Puree in a food processor or blender (or I use a mixing wand right in the pot).
• Return to pan.
• Add cream, salt, pepper, and a pinch or 2 of cinnamon.
• Simmer until heated through.
