Ingredients:

Serving

vegetable oil spray
1 2- lb butternut squash , halved lengthwise and seeded
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp dried marjoram
1/2 tsp dried thyme
pinch of grated nutmeg
1 cup milk or half-and-half
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 10- oz jar pumpkin butter
chopped pistachio nuts

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 °F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with the vegetable oil spray.
Place the squash halves, cut side down, in the prepared dish. Pierce the skin sides several times with a fork. Bake until the squash is tender, about 45 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
Using a large spoon, scrape the flesh from the cooked squash into a food processor. Discard the skins. Add 1 1/2 cups of the chicken broth, the cinnamon, marjoram, thyme, and nutmeg and puree until smooth. Transfer the puree to a large saucepan. Whisk the milk into the soup over medium heat. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add the remaining broth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Ladle the soup into warmed bowls. Top with a dollop of pumpkin butter and sprinkle with chopped pistachio nuts before serving.
Make it your own:
* Roll diced squash in a bit of canola oil and ground cinnamon. Spread on a sheet pan, sprinkle with brown sugar, and bake at 375°F for 15 to 20 minutes. Add these sweet bits of squash when pureeing the soup.
* Substitute crème fraîche or sour cream for the pumpkin butter.
* Serve the soup chilled or warm in shot glasses as a party starter.
