HUBBARD SQUASH PIE



Hubbard Squash Pie image

My mom made this pie-never pumpkin-each Thanksgiving, and everyone looked forward to it. I have fond memories of my dad cutting up a hulking big blue Hubbard squash on the kitchen counter and cooking it in order for Mom to make the pies. A more manageable butternut squash will deliver an equally delicate-tasting pie! -Patti Ann Christian, Ararat, North Carolina

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large Blue Hubbard squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (2 inch) piece ginger, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes
3 cups vegetable broth
1 (14 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Cut the squash in half. Remove the seeds and place the squash cut side-down on a baking sheet.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until you can pierce a fork through the flesh of the squash, about 40 minutes. Do not overcook it so it becomes mushy. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
  • Peel off the skin from the squash or use a spoon to scoop out the flesh. Add squash to the pot, cover with vegetable broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook, about 15 minutes.
  • Turn off heat and remove the lid. Stir in coconut milk and lemon juice and allow to cool slightly, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a blender in batches, or use an immersion blender, to blend the soup until it is silky smooth.
