Blend the Ingredients: Add the roasted apple, carrots, garlic, onion, sweet potato (peeled), and scooped butternut squash to a blender. Start with 2 cups of chicken stock and blend until smooth.
Simmer and Serve: Pour the soup into a pot, add remaining broth to desired consistency, and bring to a simmer. Adjust salt and pepper to taste, then serve topped with microgreens or chives for an added touch!
