Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Coat a baking sheet with olive oil.
- Place butternut squash and sweet potato cut-sides down on the baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle.
- While squash and potato are cooking, heat 3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and fresh sage and cook until garlic is browned and sage is crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove sage to a paper-towel lined plate. Transfer garlic to a blender.
- Scoop out the flesh of the butternut squash and potato using a spoon and transfer to the blender with garlic. Discard squash and potato skins. Add maple syrup and 1 cup vegetable broth to the blender and process until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Strain through a sieve to remove any lumps and transfer into a large pot. Add remaining 3 cups vegetable broth, bay leaves, cinnamon stick, 1 tablespoon thyme, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with pepper and sprinkle with crushed sage leaves.

Tips:
- Choose the right squash: Look for butternut squash that is firm and heavy for its size, with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid squash that has soft spots or blemishes.
- Roast the squash before pureeing: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the squash, preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Drizzle the squash with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast the squash for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until it is tender and caramelized.
- Use a high-powered blender or food processor: A high-powered blender or food processor will help you achieve a smooth and creamy soup. If you don't have a high-powered blender or food processor, you can puree the soup in a regular blender or food processor in batches.
- Add spices and herbs to taste: Feel free to add your favorite spices and herbs to the soup. Some good options include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cumin, and coriander. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar to brighten the flavor.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for butternut squash soup include roasted pumpkin seeds, chopped walnuts, crumbled bacon, and grated Parmesan cheese. You can also serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
Conclusion:
Butternut squash soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed all year round. It is a great way to use up leftover squash, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal.
