INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 1 medium butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
    • ⅔ cup chopped carrot
    • 🧅 ½ cup chopped onion
    • 🧄 1 clove garlic, chopped

  • Liquids

    • 2 cups chicken broth
    • ½ cup evaporated milk
    • ¼ cup half-and-half
    • 3 tablespoons evaporated milk

  • Seasonings

    • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • 🧂 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • Oils

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

Place butternut squash halves on the prepared baking sheet, flesh side up.

3

Roast in the preheated oven until squash is fork tender and easily pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes.

4

Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; add carrot, onion, and garlic and sauté until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

5

Remove squash from the oven and cool until easily handled. Scoop cooked squash into a bowl; discard skins.

6

Combine chicken broth, 1/2 cup evaporated milk, half-and-half, sautéed veggie mixture, cooked squash, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a high-performance blender (such as Vitamix®) in the order listed. Blend for 5 minutes 45 seconds, then turn down to variable speed 1.

7

Remove the cap while still blending and pour in remaining 3 tablespoons evaporated milk. Blend on variable speed 1 for 10 seconds more.
