Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent.
2. Add cubed butternut squash and sauté for a few minutes.
3. Pour in the vegetable broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until squash is tender, about 15 minutes.
4. Blend the soup until smooth using a hand blender or in batches in a regular blender.
5. Stir in coconut milk (if using) and season with salt and black pepper. Heat through before serving.

Tips

• Garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of coconut milk for added flavor.
• Adjust the consistency by adding more broth or water if desired.
