Slow Cooker Blissful Butternut Squash Soup

This is the easiest, creamiest, yummiest Fall crock pot soup recipe – perfect for all you butternut lovers out there! Using only a few ingredients and very minimal prep, you will have yourself a creamy, dreamy winter squash soup to satisfy your soup loving soul. It's also gluten-free and vegan which is great if you have dietary restrictions at home.

This soup was a huge hit at home yesterday! I had half the butternut and half the buttercup left over from the Roasted Winter Squash Medley recipe I posted this week, and decided to make a soup with it in the slow cooker. But it was early, and I was feeling lazy and didn't feel like peeling it so as an experiment I did this in the slow cooker with the skins on much like you would if you roasted it in the oven. This was so EASY, the squash came off the skins with a spoon in minute once it was cooked!

I didn't completely immerse the squash in broth, instead I just put 2 cups along with the shallots and turned it on 4 hours high. Then I added coconut milk and pureed it. Topped with a little more coconut milk and a pinch of nutmeg, this soup had as all swooning with every spoonful.

This is so good for you, and loaded with 9 grams of fiber! If you wish to use all butternut, that's fine, just be sure to cut it in half before putting it in the pot. You can add more broth to thin it out if it's too thick, I found this to be perfect.
