Steps:
- To make roasted winter squash: Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Heat butter over medium-high heat in an ovenproof saute pan; add diced squash, salt and pepper. When squash begins to brown, place pan in oven. Roast for 15 minutes or until medium-brown on all sides. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Puree in food processor, or mash with potato masher or ricer. Measure 1 1/2 cups squash; reserve.
- To make soup: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot. Add the onion, celery, carrot and cinnamon stick; saute until soft but not brown, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the broth and the coriander; bring to a boil. Simmer for several minutes. Stir in reserved squash until smooth; simmer gently to let the flavors meld, about 10 minutes. Discard the cinnamon stick.
- Puree the soup using an immersion blender or in a blender until smooth. (The soup can be made ahead to this point, cooled, covered, and refrigerated for several days or frozen for about 1 month. It will thicken as it cools and may need thinning with broth or water when reheating.)
- Return the soup to the pan and reheat gently. Add the half-and-half. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Top each serving with pumpkin seeds and toasted bread crumbs.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, GARLIC, AND APPLE SOUP
Butternut squash, sweet potato, carrot, and garlic roasted in large pieces and then added to onion, celery, apple, and vegetable broth. Immersion blender does the trick for thickening without adding fat. Use curry powder in place of cayenne if you prefer more savory flavors than spicy. Apple juice can also be used in place of cider, and chicken broth in place of vegetable.

Tips:
- Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash that is firm and heavy for its size, with a deep orange color. Avoid squash with blemishes or bruises.
- Roast the squash before pureeing it: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the squash in the oven or on a grill.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is an important part of the soup, so make sure to use a good quality broth that is flavorful and well-seasoned.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When you are cooking the soup, don't overcrowd the pot. This will prevent the soup from cooking evenly.
- Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of yogurt to brighten the flavors.
Conclusion:
Butternut squash soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture and sweet flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
