4 medium tart apples, peeled and chopped (about 4 cups)
4 cups coarsely chopped fresh cranberries
3 tablespoons lemon juice plus enough water to equal 1 cup
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 medium tart apple, peeled and shredded (about 1 cup)
Directions
Make a spice bag by placing cloves and allspice berries on a double thickness of cheesecloth. Gather corners of cloth to enclose seasonings; tie securely with string.
In a stockpot, combine next 6 ingredients. Add spice bag. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until mixture begins to thicken, about 45 minutes. Add shredded apple; simmer until thickened, 35-45 minutes longer (mixture will thicken more after cooling). Discard spice bag.
Carefully ladle hot mixture into 10 hot sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace, if necessary, by adding hot mixture. Wipe rims. Center lids on jars; screw on bands until fingertip tight.
In batches, place jars into canner with simmering water, ensuring that they are completely covered with water. Bring to a boil; process for 5 minutes. Remove jars and cool.

1 small butternut (2.5 pounds -or 4 cupsof cooked butternut)
2 tablespoons coconut oil, olive oil or butter
1 large apple- gala, honey crisp, diced (more for garnish, optional)
2 large shallots (or 1 onion)- diced
5 fat garlic cloves – rough chopped
1 teaspoon fresh ginger – rough chopped ( or use ginger paste)
1 tablespoon fresh sage, and more for garnish
3 ½ –4 cups vegetable stock or chicken stock (I used 4 cups water with 2 teaspoons veggie bouillon paste)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
fresh grated nutmeg– optional ( about ¼ teaspoon, more to taste, feel free to use ground)
pinch cayenne -optional, but tasty here.
½– 3/4 cup coconut milk (from a can) or use ¼-1/2 cup heavy cream or half and half. For a lighter version, sub almond milkor just leave it out, thinning the soup with more veggie stock if you prefer.
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional- see notes)
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (optional- see notes)
Optional Garnishes- crispy sage, Pumpkin seed “Brittle”, sumac, warm coconut milk, sautéed diced apple (sauté in coconut oil)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425F
Split the butternut in half lengthwise, place open side down, on a greased or parchment-lined, rimmed sheet pan. (See notes) Roast 30-35 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork, through the skin at the top, narrow end.
While the butternut is roasting, chop the onion, apple, garlic, and ginger and herbs.
Heat oil in a large heavy bottom pot or dutch oven, over medium heat.
Add onion and apple and cook 6-7 minutes, stirring until golden and tender, then add garlic and ginger, and cook 4-5 more minutes, add the herbs,turning the heat down to med-low for one more minute. It will smell divine. Turn heat off.
When the butternut is tender, flip them over, let them cool down, enough to handle, then scoop out seeds. Scoop out flesh and place in a bowl, you should have 3 3/4 to 4 cups.
Add the apple onion mixture to the same bowl.
Then, blend in batches with the veggie stock until very smooth, using a blender. (If using hot ingredients, be sure to Hold the lid down tight with a kitchen towel– to prevent a blender explosion!) If you prefer a thicker soup, add less water, thinner soup, more water.
Add the blended soup back into the same pot and warm over low heat. Add salt, pepper, nutmeg. Stir in you choice of milk to desired richness.
Taste. If you’d like more sweetness, a teaspoon or two of maple syrup will help. If you need a little acidity, a few drops of AC vinegar, or squeeze of orange juice is nice. Adjust salt.
To serve, divide among bowls, sprinkle with maple-glazed pumpkin seeds, crispy sage leaves, sautéed apple.

1 egg, beaten
Salt and black pepper to taste
