Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add squash cubes and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then simmer 12–14 minutes until squash is very tender.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from heat. Using an immersion blender, puree soup until completely smooth, about 1 minute.

  5. Step 5

    Stir in cream and torn sage leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. Step 6

    Warm over low heat for 1–2 minutes until sage is fragrant, stirring gently.

  7. Step 7

    Ladle into bowls and serve immediately.
