  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onions in hot oil until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in rosemary and black pepper, transfer mixture to a slow cooker. Pour vegetable stock, butternut squash, and apples into slow cooker.

  2. Cook on Low for 8 hours (or cook on High for 4 hours).

  3. Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
