Notes

  1. If you can't find kuri squash, you can substitute acorn, butternut, or kabocha squash to make this recipe.
  2. You can use any type of dairy-free milk or regular milk in this recipe.
  3. This soup will keep up to 4 days in an air-tight container, or up to 4 months in the freezer.
How to roast a kuri squash:
  • The first step to making a soup is to roast the squash.
  • Roasting the squash is what gives this soup an almost caramelized flavor.
  • Cut it in half and brushed the flesh with olive oil.
  • Placed it skin side up and roasted it for 30 minutes in our convection toaster oven.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
