Butternut squash, leeks, and carrots form the perfect blend of flavors, and the caramelized apples are the perfect garnish. Amazing fall recipe.
Ingredients
- 5 teaspoons olive oil, divided
- 1 ½ cups chopped carrots
- 1 cup chopped leeks, white part only
- 1 cup chopped onions
- 1 pound butternut squash, cubed
- 10 cups water
- ½ loaf Italian bread, sliced
- ½ teaspoon ground allspice
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 apple, peeled and cubed
- 3 teaspoons brown sugar
Directions
Step 1
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in large stockpot over medium heat. Add carrots, leeks, and onions. Cook and stir until softened and no longer crispy, 5 to 10 minutes. Add squash; saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cover.
Step 2
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Gently fry bread until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add bread to the stockpot; stir in allspice and ginger. Cook, covered, until squash has softened, about 30 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add apple and brown sugar. Fry until apples are well browned and start to form a crispy crust, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 4
Puree the contents of the stockpot using an immersion blender until smooth and free of chunks. Garnish soup with the caramelized apples.
Cook’s Note:
Day-old bread is fine. You can also use French bread.
