Copycat Panera Autumn Squash Soup

I love soup so much. It is one of my favorite types of food. I think I could eat every day. One of my favorite places to eat is Panera. They have some of the most amazing soups. So when I started to tinker with a butternut squash soup recipe to make it taste like a copycat Panera Autumn Squash Soup. I finally came up with a autumn squash soup that tastes like the Panera Bread recipe.

Panera Autumn Squash Soup

The cool winter nights will soon be upon us and what is better during these cold months than a rich and delicious soup! This Autumn Squash Soup recipe is a copycat from Panera. See while I love me some Panera Bread, but the price tag hurts my wallet. When the girls and I go, we easily spend $50. I can make a batch of the Panera Autumn Squash for a fraction of the cost. We have most of the ingredients on hand most days, so it costs me very little to make.

Panera Autumn Squash Soup Ingredients:

  • butternut squash
  • apple
  • Spanish onion
  • canola oil
  • curry powder
  • vegetable broth (use chicken broth for keto)
  • whole milk (use heavy cream for keto)
  • pinch of salt
  • cinnamon

You will need a food processor. There are crazy expensive ones that are around $140 and even up to $325. I would never recommend that. This is a great food processor from Hamilton Beach that is much more reasonable or an immersion blender, like this immersion blender. This is a better immersion blender set. It is an Electric Hand Immersion Blender that has 4-in-1 Hand Mixer, Food Chopper, Beaker, Balloon Whisk, and Stainless Steel Blending Shaft. It is about double the price of the regular immersion blender but it has a lot of gadgets that are great for the kitchen.
