Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients

Yield: Soup (4 Servings)
Needed Kitchenware: Roasting pan, parchment paper, blender, cooking pot
  • 1 large butternut squash (or pumpkin)
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • ⅛ tsp ground black pepper
  • ¾ cup soy cream (or other plant-based cream
  • (optional) squash/pumpkin seeds for garnish
  • (optional) vegan parmesan cheese for garnish
  • (optional) freshly ground black pepper for garnish
Recipe Directions

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 180° C (350° F) degrees.
  • Scoop out the inner section with the seeds. Cut the butternut squash into 6 pieces. Place pieces of squash onto a parchment paper lined roasting pan and place into the oven for 1 hour. (Discard, compost, or save the seed section to roast these seeds later.)
  • Carefully remove the inner flesh from the skin of the squash using 2 utensils to prevent burning your hands.
  • Add the squash into the blender along with the garlic cloves, nutritional yeast, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Blend until very smooth.
  • Move the mixture from the blender into a cooking pot on the stove and set the temperature to medium-low.
  • Add the cream and mix thoroughly while it heats over the stove.
  • Remove from the stove to serve when it is heated throughout and serve inside soup bowls or cups.
  • (Optional) Garnish with pumpkin seeds, freshly ground black pepper, or vegan parmesan cheese.
Notes

If you cannot find vegan heavy cream, you can use vegan butter or a flavorful oil instead. Use less if going with this option, about ¼ of a cup instead of ¾ of a cup.

Make it a whole food, oil-free healthy dish by omitting the cream and cheese.
