    A bowl of warm Whole30 butternut squash soup sure warms the soul and fills the belly. Plus, it only takes 30 minutes!

    Everyone will love the warm fall flavors and you will love how easy this soup is to make. You can add a touch of cayenne for a little kick as well…

    Whole30 Butternut Squash Soup

    One of my all time favorite soups, especially in the fall during soup season, is Whole30 paleo roasted butternut squash soup. The thick, creamy texture is delicate on the tongue while the hearty flavors of Whole30 roasted paleo butternut squash and full fat coconut milk give a big, robust, nutty flavor that leaves you feeling satisfied.

    Is it just me or is Whole30 tougher during the winter months? I like to grill in the summer and prefer to eat lighter sticking to mostly veggies and fruits.

    However, in the winter I want all of my comfort foods. That is where this easy butternut squash soup recipe comes in handy. This honeynut squash is also a yummy recipe.

    It truly does warm the belly and fill you up in a comforting way. The best part is that this flavorful soup can be made with a few simple ingredients that you can find at your local grocery store.

    Can you eat butternut squash soup on Whole30?

    Yes definitely! This soup is pretty simple to make because the oven does all the work. That is a reason alone to grab my attention with an easy recipe.

    I love quick and simple dinners that don’t require a bunch of work on my part. Simply put that butternut squash in to bake and see the flavors come alive as it is roasted.

     

    How do you thicken butternut squash soup?

    With this simple recipe, there is actually no need to thicken it with added starch. Since doing Whole30 now twice, I consider this a go-to comfort food recipe.

    I love that you can make it as thin as you want by adding a bit of chicken bone broth or vegetable broth. Just make sure it is also Whole30 compliant.

    How to make this recipe

    Preheat oven to 400°

    Peel and cube (1″ or so) the butternut squash. Place on a large baking sheet and toss in 2 T coconut oil or olive oil, 1/2 tsp. Real Onion Salt and 1/2 tsp. Real Salt

    Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until tender

    Place roasted butternut squash and all remaining ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy

    Add hot water as needed to thin it out to your desired texture. Salt and pepper to taste.

    Top with pumpkin seeds.

    *If you like it thinner, add some Whole30 compliant broth.

    What protein goes with butternut squash soup?

    I think that adding some crumbled sausage, bacon bits or chicken really takes this soup to the next level with some extra flavor. My hubby only likes dinners with protein so that’s my favorite way to serve it to him.

    Soup toppings

    Top this creamy soup off with fresh pepitas or roasted pumpkin seeds. If you aren’t on Whole30, some gluten-free crackers make a great addition.

    How long does this last?

    This soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. It can easily be reheated in the microwave or on the stove top and is just as delicious the next day.
