Do you still have apples from this fall's bountiful harvest? Here's a delicious recipe that will put those apples to good use and warm up a chilly evening! 🍎🍏

APPLE & PARSNIP/CARROT SOUP – yields 4 servings

1½ c diced white onion (1 medium)
1 T butter
1 c white wine
2 large Honeycrisp apples, peeled and roughly chopped, about 2 c
2 large carrots or parsnips, peeled and roughly chopped, about 2 c
1 russet potato or white sweet potato, peeled and roughly chopped, about 1½ c
1 t dried sage
½ t garam masala
¼ t cinnamon
2 c chicken or vegetable stock
1 c cream
salt and cracked black pepper (to taste)
½ c sliced green onions (to garnish)

In a soup pot or Dutch oven, sauté onions in butter over medium heat until translucent, and then add wine. Allow the mixture to reduce until most of the liquid has evaporated, and then add carrot or parsnip, apple, potato and sage to the mixture.
Cover and cook for about 10 minutes, or until vegetables have softened and have taken on a slight color. Add the stock and cream and bring to a simmer
Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture smooth. Add stock or water as needed to adjust texture. Garnish with sliced green onion.
