Does anything scream Autumn more than soup? I think not. And this spiced butternut squash soup with celeriac and apple is the epitome of Autumn. Grab your woolly hat and fluffy socks and get comfy for this one.


As you can probably tell from the name, this soup goes all in with seasonal ingredients. Not only have we got the obvious butternut squash, celeriac and apple but there is also some dried sage and nutmeg (plus a little bit of dried chili if that’s your thing) which adds a wonderful warmth and depth of flavour. It is a literal hug in a mug. Or bowl. Or whatever bit of crockery you’ve got on hand.

Spiced Butternut Squash Soup with Celeriac and Apple FAQ

How to store soup:

Leave the soup to cool at room temperature for no more than two hours. Transfer the butternut squash soup into an air-tight Tupperware container and pop into the fridge. Consume within 3-4 days.

How to reheat soup:

Transfer the soup to a saucepan and heat over a medium heat on the stove. Allow the soup to simmer for approximately 5 minutes, stirring regularly. Alternatively, you can reheat the soup in the microwave. Transfer it to a microwave safe container and heat for 2-3 minutes on full power, stirring halfway through. Ensure the soup is piping hot before consuming. If it is not, heat for a few more minutes.

How to freeze soup:

Transfer the butternut squash soup to a freezer-safe container and put it into the freezer, where it can stay for up to 6 months. This is a great recipe to freeze in individual portions so you can grab one for a last-minute lunch.

To defrost the soup transfer it from the freezer to the fridge to thaw overnight. This can take up to 24 hours. To defrost the soup in a shorter amount of time you could use the defrost setting on your microwave.
