Preparation Steps
- Start by peeling and cubing your sweet potatoes and butternut squash, ensuring they are cut into even pieces for uniform cooking.
- Next, slice the apples, removing the cores to avoid any bitterness. Mince the garlic to release its robust flavor.
- Add all these freshly prepped ingredients into your slow cooker.
- Sprinkle the ground cinnamon and nutmeg over the vegetables and apples, creating an aromatic spice layer. Toss the mixture gently in the slow cooker.
- Pour the vegetable broth over the mix, ensuring that the solid ingredients are fully submerged.
- Cover your slow cooker and set it to low. Let the soup cook for about 6 hours.
- Once cooking time is up, blend the mixture until smooth using an immersion blender or carefully in batches in a countertop blender.
- Stir in heavy cream for extra richness, taste, and season with salt and pepper.
- Ladle the soup into bowls while it’s still hot, and consider garnishing with a drizzle of cream or fresh herbs.
