COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the onions and cook, stirring often, until soft and see-through, about 10 minutes.
Do not brown. Add the carrots, sweet potatoes, chicken broth and bring to a boil.
Cover and simmer over low heat until vegetables are very soft, about 25 minutes.
Stir in the apples and honey. Using a blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy.
(Be sure to leave the hole in the blender lid open, and cover it with a kitchen towel, to allow the steam to escape.)
Season to taste with salt, pepper and more honey if needed. Spoon the soup into bowls.
(Note: As the soup sits, it will thicken up so you may need to add a bit of water to thin it out.)
