Ingredients
3 tbsp.
unsalted butter
2 tbsp.
olive oil
2 lbs.
butternut squash, peeled, seeded and diced
1 lb.
sweet potato, peeled and diced
1
large yellow onion, chopped
2
Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and chopped
1 tsp.

Directions
In a large pot, melt butter and oil over medium heat; add next 6 ingredients, through paprika. Cook until squash is slightly soft (about 15 min.), stirring occasionally; add stock. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until squash is soft. Add cream; blend in blender. Add additional stock (or water), if desired, to reach preferred consistency; season to taste with salt and pepper. Use a spouted pitcher to pour soup into 2-3 oz. shot glasses. Garnish individual servings as desired.
