Remove and discard the herb stems; transfer the squash mixture to a blender. Add broth and honey and place the lid on, with the center of the lid open or removed to allow steam to escape. Place a clean towel over the opening. Puree until smooth. (Puree the soup in batches, if necessary.) Divide among 8 bowls. Drizzle each serving with 1 teaspoon chili crisp. Garnish with more sage and croutons, if desired.

Frequently Asked QuestionsNo. Reduced-fat feta cheese has a dry, chalky texture that will give this soup a grainy texture. If you want to reduce the saturated fat in the soup, use half a block of full-fat feta cheese instead of the whole thing.Yes, but with some changes to the method. Unlike feta cheese, which holds its shape in the oven, soft cheeses like goat cheese or Boursin will melt. If you want to use soft cheese, skip the baking and add it directly to the blender in Step 2.The honey helps balance the flavor, but you can leave it out if you prefer.
