ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH APPLES AND BACON
I created this soup on Christmas Eve and it was a huge hit. The roasted squash caramelizes giving the soup that extra depth of flavor. This soup has a very creamy consistency but is completely dairy-free except for the optional garnish of sour cream (I did this on purpose due to a guest who is allergic to dairy). It is also extremely healthy. Don't shy away from the curry powder; it gives the soup that extra flavor. Feel free to play around with the amount of carrot, onion or celery, garlic to your taste. This soup can be made the day before and reheated.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place squash in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil; mix to coat; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread squash into a single layer on a baking pan. Roast the squash in the preheated oven, turning once, until fork-tender and caramelized; 30 to 40 minutes.
- Place the bacon in a Dutch oven and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon slices to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving the drippings in the pan.
- Place the onion, celery, carrot, bay leaf, curry powder, thyme, and salt and pepper in the Dutch oven; cook in reserved bacon drippings until the carrots and celery are soft. Mix in the apples and cooked squash and cook another 5 minutes. Stir the garlic into the mixture and cook another 1 minute. Pour the apple cider over the mixture; reduce heat to medium-low and bring to a simmer; allow to reduce to about half its original volume. Stir in the chicken stock; simmer over medium-low heat for about 20 minutes.
- Puree the soup in small batches in a blender, or use an immersion blender. If using a blender, don't fill the blender more than half-way. Always remove the center lid piece of a stand blender when blending hot liquids so the steam can escape. Cover the hole with a dish towel while blending. Stir the nutmeg into the soup. Garnish each bowl with 1 tablespoon of sour cream and some of the bacon pieces to serve.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, SAUTEED APPLES AND TOASTED WALNUT CREPES WITH CINNAMON GELATO
Steps:
- For the filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the butternut squash with some olive oil and salt. Place onto a baking sheet and into the oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Put a saute pan over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the apples and salt to taste, and saute until softened. Hit it with the brown sugar and toss until melted. Hit it with the bourbon off the flame, and then carefully tip the pan to the flame to flambe and let the alcohol burn off. Add the apple cider and bring back to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until glazy and delicious, about 10 minutes. Toss in the roasted butternut squash and half of the chopped walnuts.
- To assemble: Add about 1/4 cup of the filling into the bottom third of a crepe. Roll the crepe and place seam-side down on a plate. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients.
- To serve: Arrange 1 crepe roll on each serving plate and spoon more butternut squash and apple filling over the top. Garnish with toasted walnuts and serve with Cinnamon Gelato. Dust with powdered sugar.
- For the batter: In a mixing bowl, add the flour and salt and make a well in the center. Add the eggs, milk and club soda into the center of the well and whisk together until just combined. The mixture should be like VERY loose pancake batter. If the mixture is a little thick, whisk in a little more milk. Let the batter sit for at least 30 minutes before using. The crepe batter can be made up to 2 days in advance, covered and refrigerated.
- For the crepes: Melt about 1/2 teaspoon of the butter in a small nonstick saute pan. The butter should coat the bottom of the pan; if there is a lot of excess, wipe it out with a paper towel. Keep the paper towel handy in case you need it again (you will).
- Put the pan over medium heat. Fill a 2-ounce ladle almost to the top with batter and pour it into the preheated pan, tipping and rolling the pan as you ladle the batter to evenly cover the bottom. This will take a little practice; even when you are an experienced crepe maker, the first couple always get wasted. Accept it and move on.
- When the edges of the crepe begin to pull away from the edges of the pan and the bottom begins to brown a little, flip the crepe over and cook it for about 1 minute on the other side. Remove the crepe from the pan to a plate and let cool. Stack the crepes as they are cooked between parchment paper squares.
- Repeat this process until all the batter is used, wiping the pan with your paper towel or melting a little more butter to the pan as needed.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, 1/4 cup of the sugar, the vanilla extract, salt and cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil, turn off the heat and let sit.
- In a small bowl, combine the egg yolks and the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat to a homogeneous consistency.
- Bring the heavy cream-cinnamon mixture back to a boil and turn the heat off. Whisk a third of the heavy cream mixture into the egg-sugar mixture, and then immediately whisk the egg mixture back into the remaining heavy cream mixture. Bring the mixture back up over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and coats the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes. Strain the mixture and chill over an ice water bath.
- Churn the chilled mixture in an ice cream/gelato machine according to the manufacturer's directions.
