Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups vegetable broth
1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
1 package (16 oz) soft gnocchi
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste

Instructions
Gather all your ingredients. Peel and dice the butternut squash, chop the onion, and mince the garlic.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft and translucent. Then, stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add the diced butternut squash and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cover the pot, cooking for about 25-30 minutes or until the squash is tender.
Once the squash is soft, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until creamy.
Stir in the coconut milk, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme. Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes.
In a separate pot, bring salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi according to package instructions, typically 2-4 minutes until they float to the surface.
