    Gourmet flavour with this recipe for  Vanilla Butternut Squash Bisque. A hint of vanilla bean adds a delicious layer of flavour to this exceptional soup.
    Vanilla Butternut Squash Bisque
    Vanilla Butternut Squash Bisque is easy to prepare and makes a very hearty meal for those cold winter days. A hint of fresh vanilla bean adds an exceptional depth of flavour, so be sure to use fresh vanilla beans. Pure Vanilla extract will work, but won't give you the same notable flavor.  You can bake and puree the squash ahead of time and keep in the refrigerator until ready to prepare the bisque. This bisque is great served with fresh baked Butternut Squash Scones .

      5 stars
      This was very yummy, Laureen!
      I used coconut milk, instead of cream (lactose intolerant)
      and I didn't have any fancy vanilla bean (like you!) so I added a tablespoon of vanilla extract and am happily surprised how great it was.
      I will make this again.
