This recipe was so good! Even my kids, who don’t like squash, really loved this recipe. The leftovers were delicious too. I ended up cooking my squash in the instant pot, and the whole thing was easy and so delicious.

So glad you liked it! This is a good question. If I had to guess, I’d say about a 3-4 pound butternut squash. Because you are roasting it beforehand, it already gets tender, so the broth you add is a lot less than if you were cooking raw squash in a soup. For that situation, the amount would be more important, since it would be easy for the soup to be too thick/thin depending on how much is used. But because the amount of added broth here is only 2 cups (which can be adjusted easily if needed), it isn’t quite as important for the size of the squash. Hope that helps!

My son has made this for me in the past a couple times, and I’ve loved it! I’ll be trying my own hand at it for the first time soon. I realize that quantities have a lot of “wiggle room” in a soup, so it really doesn’t matter much, but how large is “large” for the butternut squash? Do you know weight-wise how big a squash I should be looking for? Thanks!

I made this and it was delicious. I did cut up my butternut squash in bite size pieces and sprinkled it with olive oil and Kinders ‘The blend’ seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic). Roasted it in the oven at 400°f for 20 min. Tossed and put back in the oven for another 15-20 min. to Roast. Added it then as per your other directions in the recipe. Just fabulous 👌

Love this soup so much.
So much favor, the ginger and coconut makes the soup, with the turmeric. Thanks

Correction. I made my butternut squash bisque and found it lacking. Your suggestion of turmeric made it perfect. Thank you.

I made my sweet potato bisque but could tell it was missing something. The turmeric made it perfect.

Also, as a former teacher, I LOVE that you’re making this for your son’s teachers. What a wonderful gesture!

Delicious, healthy and easy to make! I’m on my 4th batch for myself and I am making it for my son’s teachers lunch next week. Fool-proof recipe that is now in my keeper binder!

I’m sorry I can’t help with this but I’m unfamiliar with how a soup maker works! This recipe might help you with timing and basic instructions, and then you can adjust to use the spices and ingredients from my recipe. Hope that helps a little! https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/soup-maker-butternut-squash-soup-chilli-and-creme-fraiche

This was so good, I’m not the biggest butternut squash fan but had one as part of a vegetable delivery – I think I’ll start ordering them just for this soup recipe! I didn’t have any coconut milk so substituted for a small can of coconut cream.

So glad you liked it, and I love the idea of adding carrots and all the delicious toppings you added! Thanks for sharing these suggestions.

This soup was SO delicious! Really filling, healthy, and the flavor was absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe exactly, with the addition of three large roasted carrots – I threw them in before I blended everything. The slow-cooker method for cooking the squash was fabulous. I topped it with feta chunks, walnuts, and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
