Cozy weather is here, and I can’t resist whipping up a delicious, velvety bowl of my Butternut Squash Bisque. It’s creamy, comforting, and packed with warm spices, and the best part? It’s ready in less than an hour and can easily be made vegan or gluten-free!
Heat the oil in a large pot, sauté the onion until soft.
Next add the garlic, diced butternut squash, and carrots.
Continue to sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until all vegetables are very soft, approximately 20 minutes.
When the vegetables are fully cooked remove the pot from the heat.
Using an immersion blender or a food processor, pureé the butternut bisque until smooth.
Stir in the seasonings, nutmeg and cream.
Heat the bisque over a low heat and bring to a gentle simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring to prevent the bisque from burning. Do not boil as this will cause the bisque to split.
Adjust seasoning to taste and serve.
