Think butternut squash recipes are only for fall? Think again. Easy Roasted Butternut Squash Feta Soup – a comforting delight for all seasons! One of my favorite ways to make soup is using my trusty Dutch oven. Just load up all the ingredients into it with a splash of olive oil and seasonings, cover with the lid, and transfer to the preheated oven. The oven will slowly cook everything together, caramelizing the butternut squash and garlic to perfection.
Roasting the sweet, nutty butternut squash concentrates its flavor, while the briny, salty feta cheese balances out its sweetness. For the herbs, I like to use fresh sage. Dried sage won’t add the same fresh flavor, but in a pinch, use a teaspoon of dried sage or replace it with your herb of choice. Once everything is roasted, simply blend the veggies with some vegetable broth using an immersion blender. Serve the soup hot with a drizzle of honey and some crusty bread. Creamy, savory and utterly moreish, it’s elegant to eat and easy to prepare.
To make the Easy Roasted Butternut Squash Feta Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 °F.
In a Dutch oven fitted with a lid, add ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil, 5 cups butternut squash, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt and toss to coat. Place 1 feta chunk in the center, add 4 leaves sage, and nestle the bulb of garlic in the pot. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Bake, covered, until the butternut squash is soft and caramelized, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Using oven mitts, carefully remove the pot from the oven and take out the roasted garlic bulb. Carefully squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out into the pot and add in 4 cups vegetable broth and 2 tablespoons honey.
Use an immersion blender to puréе the soup until smooth. Taste and adjust salt and black pepper if needed.
Serve hot, drizzled with more honey and an extra sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper. Enjoy!
