Butternut Squash and Apple Soup

This vibrant butternut squash and apple soup is a quintessential vegetarian dish for the colder months. The natural sweetness of the roasted squash and Gala apple is perfectly balanced by a hint of aromatic nutmeg and a splash of fruit juice, creating a depth of flavour that feels both elegant and restorative. It is a wonderful way to celebrate seasonal British produce when you need a warming, nutritious lunch.

Ideal for a quick midweek meal or a sophisticated starter, this velvety soup is naturally low in fat yet feels incredibly indulgent. The addition of a light soured cream swirl and fresh chives provides a cooling finish and a professional touch. Serve it with a hunk of crusty sourdough bread for a satisfying and healthy homemade treat.
