This Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup is healthy and satisfying and filled with the goodness of fall produce. With a combination of butternut squash, apples, onion, fresh sage and warming spices, this slow-cooker soup is as cozy as it gets. Your family is really going to enjoy it!
To start, sauté your onions. It may seem like an extra step, but if you have time to spare, sautéing the onions will take this soup to the next level. Add the caramelized onions, chopped butternut squash, apples, vegetable broth, fresh sage, and spices to the bowl of your slow cooker. Cover and cook until the squash is tender. Purée the soup until smooth, adding the coconut milk to make it extra creamy. Divide the soup among bowls and serve topped with toasted pumpkin seeds, chopped fresh sage, and swirls of coconut cream. Enjoy!
To make the Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
Lightly coat a 4-quart or larger slow cooker with cooking spray. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil and add the chopped onion. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and fragrant, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Transfer the onions to the slow cooker.
To the slow cooker, add the butternut squash cubes, 2 chopped apples, 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 2 sage leaves.
Cover the slow cooker with a lid and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours, keeping the lid on.
Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and add ¾ cup light coconut milk. Purée until smooth and creamy. Add more milk to thin the soup if desired. Taste and adjust seasonings.
Divide the soup among bowls, drizzle with coconut cream and finish with toasted pumpkin seeds and chopped fresh sage if desired.
