  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Carefully peel and cube the butternut squash into roughly 2.5cm pieces.
  2. In a bowl, toss the squash cubes with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking tray and roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until soft and slightly caramelised on the edges.
  3. Meanwhile, drain and rinse the butter beans. Once the squash is roasted, transfer both the squash and butter beans to a medium-sized saucepan over low heat.
  4. Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a simmer. Allow it to cook for 5-7 minutes, and season with more salt and pepper to taste if necessary.
  5. Remove from heat and use a hand blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Stir in the single cream, and blend again briefly until incorporated.
  6. Serve hot with a drizzle of extra cream or olive oil if desired, garnishing with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added colour and flavour.
