Pumpkin Soup with Apple Schnitz Croutons Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the pumpkin or winter squash in half and remove all seeds. Place cut side up on a cookie sheet and bake 45 minutes, or until soft. Remove the pulp from the shell, puree in a food processor fitted with a metal blade, and reserve. Heat the butter in a large, heavy-bottomed soup pot until foamy. Add all of the vegetables (except the reserved pumpkin or squash) and saute 10 minutes. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, then add the pumpkin puree and the spices. Cook 45 minutes, adding the maple syrup and heavy cream in the last 5 minutes of cooking. To make the Apple Schnitz Croutons: Peel and core the apples and slice into paper-thin rings using a food processor fitted with a vegetable slicing disk. Spread the slices on a non-stick cookie sheet or one lined with parchment paper. Dust with light brown sugar, and dry in a preheated 300 degree oven approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until crisp. When the soup has finished cooking, cool several minutes before pureeing in small batches in a blender or food processor. Serve immediately, garnished with the Apple Schnitz Croutons. This recipe yields 10 to 12 servings.
