Winter Squash And Apple Soup

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 425u00b0F. Place squash, onion and apple pieces on large baking sheet. Sprinkle with coriander, cumin, red pepper flakes and salt, drizzle with oil and toss to coat evenly. Roast, stirring occasionally, until tender, 30 to 45 minutes (timing will depend on variety and age of squash).

2. 2

   Transfer roasted vegetables to Dual Wall jar of KitchenAid(R) Pro Line(R) Blender and add stock. Secure lid and set blender to Soup setting. Blend until machine turns itself off.

3. 3

   Alternatively, combine ingredients in blender as directed, secure lid and turn dial to Speed 1. Slowly increase speed to high (Speed 10 or 11). Blend until completely smooth, about 2 minutes. Continue to blend until rising steam is visible, 1 to 2 minutes longer.

4. 4

   Adjust thickness with more stock, if you like. Season to taste with salt. The soup should be hot. Serve at once, or let cool, transfer to airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

5. 5

   Garnish Variations: Top with dollop of yogurt, sour cream or creme fraiche; with chopped fresh cilantro, thyme or flat-leaf parsley leaves; or with toasted pumpkin seeds.
