For a vegan option, substitute butter with olive oil and cream cheese with a plant-based alternative. Roasting a few cloves of garlic along with the squash adds a deeper, more complex flavor. Adjust the amount of brown sugar and cinnamon to suit your personal preference. For a richer soup, use heavy cream or coconut milk instead of some of the chicken broth. Soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
