This soup was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less maple syrup next time.

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding more broth or water to thin it out.

I'm not usually a fan of butternut squash, but this soup changed my mind. It's so smooth and flavorful, and the hint of maple syrup really brings out the sweetness of the squash.

This soup is incredibly delicious! The butternut squash flavor is rich and creamy, and the spices add a perfect warmth. I topped mine with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped chives, and it was heavenly.
