I like this one. Sometimes I use vegetable stock instead of cider.

You can try this one. Alton has you roast the butternut squash in the oven instead of cooking it in the soup pot. Pretty easy.

Easy butternut squash soup recipe?

I make this one

1 medium to large butternut or other winter squash (between 3 and 4 pounds)
3 tablespoons butter, unsalted
2 large leeks, white part only cleaned thoroughly and chopped (you could substitute one onion for the leeks if you prefer)
4 teaspoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
5 cups chicken stock or broth
½ cup heavy whipping cream
¼ teaspoon salt (if using salted store-bought chicken broth then taste the soup before adding any salt)
Optional: Chopped pistachio nuts and/or fresh sage leaves for garnish

Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Slice the squash in half long ways and scoop out the seeds. Place the squash cut side down on a baking sheet. If you line the baking sheet with foil or parchment paper the clean up will be easier.
Bake for 30 – 45 minutes or until the thick part of the squash can easily be pierced with a fork. Let cool then scoop out the pulp and discard the skin.
Note: This step can be done in advance.
In a large soup pot over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped leeks and ginger. Cook for 5 – 8 minutes until tender, but not browned.
Add the squash pulp to the pot along with the 5 cups of chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring and breaking up the squash with the back of your spoon, for 10 – 15 minutes.
Puree the soup in a blender
After the soup has been pureed, stir in the cream and salt (to taste).
