How to Make Apple And Squash Soup

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive or vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, 1 teaspoon curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste).
Cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds.
Add 1.5 lbs butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed, 4 cups chicken broth, 1 cup water, 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), peeled, cored, and chopped, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup light cream or coconut cream (for a vegan option).
Carefully puree the soup in a blender or food processor in batches. Return the soup to the pot and heat through.
Serve hot and garnish as desired (e.g., with a dollop of cream, chopped apples, or toasted pumpkin seeds).
