Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables and Aromatics
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, sliced
- 1 cup butternut squash, cubed
Pantry
- 1 (15 oz) can cannellini beans, drained
- 4 cups vegetable broth
Spices
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon sage
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional Garnishes
- Fresh parsley
- A drizzle of coconut milk
- Chili flakes
Instructions
- Sauté aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent. Then add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Cook vegetables: Add the diced carrots, sliced celery, and cubed butternut squash to the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
- Add broth and spices: Pour in the vegetable broth, then stir in the thyme, sage, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Simmer the soup: Reduce heat and let the soup simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes so the flavors meld together and the vegetables become fully tender.
- Finish with beans and blend: Add the drained cannellini beans to the pot during the last 5 minutes of simmering. For a creamy texture, use an immersion blender to blend a portion of the soup, then stir it back into the pot. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley, a drizzle of coconut milk, or chili flakes if desired.
Notes
- For extra creaminess, blend part of the soup but keep some vegetables chunky for texture.
- Adjust cinnamon amount according to your spice preference for subtle warmth.
- This soup freezes well; store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 months.
- Use homemade or low-sodium vegetable broth to control salt levels.
- Garnish options like coconut milk or chili flakes add additional flavor layers and creaminess.
