Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables and Herbs

  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1 cup butternut squash, cubed
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Liquids

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cups vegetable broth

Beans

  • 1 (15 oz) can cannellini beans, drained

Optional Garnishes

  • Fresh parsley
  • A drizzle of coconut milk
  • Chili flakes

Instructions

  1. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant to build a flavorful base.
  2. 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 start to soften but retain some texture.
  3. Add Broth and Spices: Pour in the vegetable broth and stir in the thyme, sage, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil to combine the flavors.
  4. Simmer Soup: Reduce heat to a simmer and cook uncovered for 20-25 minutes, allowing the vegetables to become tender and the spices to infuse the broth with warmth and depth.
  5. Finish with Beans and Blend: Add the drained cannellini beans during the last 5 minutes of simmering to heat through. For a creamier texture, blend a portion of the soup using an immersion blender and stir back into the pot. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley, a drizzle of coconut milk, or chili flakes as desired.

Notes

  • You can substitute cannellini beans with white kidney or great northern beans if preferred.
  • Adjust cinnamon to taste for a subtle or more pronounced warming note.
  • Blending part of the soup enhances creaminess without adding dairy.
  • Vegetable broth can be homemade or store-bought low sodium for better control over salt content.
  • Serve with crusty bread for a heartier meal.
