    • ¾ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, divided
    • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • 1 teaspoon yellow curry powder
    • ¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
    • 1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg, or to taste

  • Fats and Oils

    • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

2

Place butternut squash in a baking dish, flesh side up. Brush 1 tablespoon melted butter over the flesh and top with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, and cayenne pepper.

3

Roast in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour. Remove squash from oven and cool for 15 minutes.

4

Place a large stockpot over medium heat; add 1 tablespoon butter. Cook and stir onion in the melted butter for 2 minutes. Add curry powder; cook and stir for 1 minute. Stir in coconut milk; bring to a boil.

5

Scoop flesh from the butternut squash and add to coconut milk mixture; mix in remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, vegetable stock, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until soup is heated through.

6

Blend soup using an immersion blender on low speed. Simmer until soup is smooth and thickened, about 20 minutes more. Add more vegetable stock for a thinner consistency and season with salt.

7

Ladle soup into bowls and top each with pumpkin seeds and a pinch of nutmeg.
