Ingredients:

Serving

1 (3-lb) butternut squash
1 (2-lb) acorn squash
cooking spray
2 cups coarsely chopped onion
2 tsp canola oil
5 cups fat-free , less-sodium chicken broth
2/3 cup apple cider
2 tbsp molasses
1 tsp curry powder
3/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground red pepper
2/3 cup half-and-half
chopped fresh thyme (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425°.
Cut each squash in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membranes. Place squash, cut sides down, on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray.
Combine onion and oil, tossing to coat. Spread onion mixture onto pan around squash. Bake at 425° for 45 minutes or until squash and onion are tender. Cool slightly. Scoop out squash pulp from skins; discard skins.
Place onion and squash pulp in a Dutch oven. Stir in broth and the next 5 ingredients (through pepper); bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes.
Place half of squash mixture in a blender. Remove center piece of blender lid (to allow steam to escape); secure blender lid on blender. Place a clean towel over opening in blender lid (to avoid splatters). Blend until smooth. Pour into a large bowl. Repeat procedure with remaining squash mixture. Return pureed mixture to pan; stir in half-and-half. Cook over medium heat 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Garnish with thyme, if desired.
