Crockpot Butternut Squash Soup

We have been on a major cleaning spree. I know spring is usually the season for getting organized, but I can’t wait that long. Our house is cluttered and I am putting an end to it right now. Fall cleaning is the new trend…at least at our house:) We cleaned out our storage room and I found our slow cooker! It was hiding under our holiday wrapping and gift bags. I brought it upstairs and we made Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup with Maple Roasted Chickpeas. I love that we can walk through our storage room and I really love that our cleaning spree lead to this delicious butternut squash soup. I am so glad we dusted off the old slow cooker! And keep reading because we are giving away a slow cooker today:)

Making Butternut Squash Soup Extra Special

Since this crockpot butternut squash soup is so easy to make, I decided to jazz it up a bit by making Maple Roasted Chickpeas. They are the perfect garnish for the creamy butternut squash soup since it has a touch of maple syrup. I tossed chickpeas with a little oil, pure maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. I roasted them until the were nice and crispy…and then I tried not to eat them all before dinner time. They are SO good and the perfect topping for the soup.

Healthy Butternut Squash Soup

Butternut squash soup is one of my all-time favorite soups. It’s loaded with healthy squash, carrots, onion, and apple. It always hits the spot. I love this recipe because you can throw everything in the slow cooker and walk away. In a few hours, you have a tasty soup waiting for you! Oh, and your house will smell amazing while it is cooking away!

Blending the Butternut Squash Soup

When the vegetables are nice and soft from cooking in the slow cooker, I use my trusty immersion blender to create a creamy and smooth soup. If you don’t own one, you can transfer to a blender. I add cinnamon, nutmeg, and a splash of maple syrup, the perfect flavors for fall butternut squash soup. I then ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each bowl with maple roasted chickpeas.

And…this Butternut Squash Soup is Vegan!

This butternut squash soup has it all! It is silky, smooth, and slightly sweet. The maple roasted chickpeas add a nice crunch and are the perfect little “croutons” for the soup. And, this butternut squash soup is healthy and easy to make. Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup with Maple Roasted Chickpeas is a must-make recipe for fall! And if you are looking for a soup to serve at your Thanksgiving feast, let this be the one! It is so easy and so good! Plus, it is vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free!
