For an extra layer of flavor, try roasting the squash with a drizzle of maple syrup or a sprinkle of brown sugar before baking. Garnish with a swirl of crème fraîche, toasted pumpkin seeds, or a sprinkle of chopped chives for an elegant presentation. If you don’t have heavy cream, half-and-half can be used, but the soup will be less rich. Consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of cayenne pepper for a hint of warmth and spice.
