Panera Breads Autumn Squash Soup Recipes

PANERA AUTUMN SQUASH SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Peel butternut squash with a sharp knife or vegetable peeler, remove seeds and strings using a spoon or ice cream scoop and cut into ¾ to 1-inch cubes or chunks.
• (OPTIONAL) Roast squash: Place squash into a large baking sheet lined with foil for easy cleaning. Toss them with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper until coated. Bake in a 400 F (200 C) preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until almost tender. Reserve! For further instructions on how to prepare and roast butternut squash, check out our tutorial on how to cut and cook butternut squash.
• If making this autumn squash soup in the Instant Pot or pressure cooker, press the sauté button and let it heat for about 4 minutes. Add oil and sauté the onion and the apple for about 3 minutes, stirring every once in a while. Add the (roasted) squash, pumpkin purée, cinnamon, curry, and broth. Stir to combine. Cancel the sauté function, lock the lid, secure the valve, and set to manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Depending on your pressure cooker, you may have to press the soup button and manually set it to 10 minutes. Once cooked, do a quick release.
• Purée the soup with an immersion blender or a kitchen blender until creamy and smooth. If you intend to freeze part of the soup for later use, separate the portion you want to freeze and only add cream once the soup is thawed and reheated. This will avoid developing an unpleasant texture. But if you intend to consume the soup within the next 3 days, stir in honey, heavy cream, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with pepitas on top.
• If making it on the stovetop, follow steps 1 and 2 (optional). Then, heat a pot over medium heat. Add oil and sauté the onion and the apple for about 3 minutes, stirring every once in a while. Add the (roasted) squash, pumpkin purée, cinnamon, curry, and broth. Stir to combine. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 15-18 minutes or until squash is tender. Then follow step 4.
• If making in the slow cooker, follow steps 1 and 2 (optional). Then, heat a no-stick skillet over medium heat. Add oil and sauté the onion and the apple for about 3 minutes, stirring every once in a while. Add them to the crockpot as well as the (roasted) squash, pumpkin purée, cinnamon, curry, and broth. Stir to combine. Cover and set to high for 3-4 hours. Then follow step 4.

PANERA BREAD AUTUMN SQUASH SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel and cut butternut squash into 1-inch cubes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over the butternut squash and stir to coat it well. Bake for about 30 minutes or until the butternut squash is fork-tender. Do not let the squash brown.
• In a large stockpot, add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and saute onions until they are translucent. Sprinkle a little salt over the onions as you saute them. By salting the onions you will pull moisture out of the onions and the onions will cook more quickly.
• When the onions are translucent add pumpkin, butternut squash, vegetable stock, curry powder, and cinnamon, apple juice, and honey. Heat through. When the soup is hot, use an immersion blender to make the soup smooth. You can use a blender to make the soup if desired. Add cream to the soup, and stir the cream.
• Toast the pumpkin seeds in a small skillet. Heat through until they become fragrant. Remove from heat immediately.
