INSTRUCTIONS

Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a cast iron soup pot set over medium heat. Add onion and carrot. Cook, while stirring, until onion is translucent. Add apple. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Stir to combine. Add squash, rosemary sprig, bay leaf and chicken broth. Bring to a rapid simmer, stir, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook 15 minutes or until squash is tender.

While the soup is cooking, make croutons by melting remaining butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. The butter should foam, but not brown. Add cubed bread and cook, tossing frequently, until well browned on all sides. Season with minced rosemary and a pinch of salt. Toss a few more times in the pan, then set aside on a paper towel-lined plate until ready to serve.

Remove the soup from the heat and puree with an immersion blender until smooth. Return to the stove over low heat and season with honey, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt. Taste for seasoning and adjust if needed. Whisk together yogurt and lemon zest. Serve the soup drizzled with yogurt and topped with croutons and chopped rosemary.
