Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the apples into bite-sized pieces. Spread the brown sugar on a plate. Roll the apple bites in the brown sugar until they are coated.

Spread the coated apple bites onto the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for about 20 minutes until the apples are golden brown. Don’t let them get too soft. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. Set aside or keep refrigerated until ready to use.

Add the broth to the pot, along with the salt and pepper. Let the soup come to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Transfer the soup in batches to a blender or use an immersion blender to blend the soup until it is silky smooth. Return to the pot.
Add the milk to the soup. Mix to combine. Heat the soup until it is warm. Taste for seasoning. Serve in bowls topped with apple croutons.
