The Best Butternut Squash Soup

 

I have tried many butternut squash soup recipes, and this one never fails to leave the pot empty.  It’s so simple to make and tastes super creamy, while remaining a low fat, healthy dish.

This soup is so easy to make and tastes incredible! The creaminess of the squash, paired with sage, is perfect for a cool fall (or winter!) day. You may want to make a double batch, because this soup won't last!

Recipe Notes

Sometimes I'll also add 2-3 peeled and chopped apples (Fuji, Gala, Braeburn).  I add it at the same time as the butternut squash.
