Vegan Butternut Squash Soup image

Apple and winter squash are fantastic together. They are the perfect pair for this cozy, vegan butternut squash soup. For a slightly different flavor that still features classic fall produce, substitute a ripe pear for the apple. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
