Instant Pot® Broccoli-Cheese Soup image

I intentionally made this as low carb as possible, but it still has the comfort of a richer broccoli-cheese soup.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons salted butter
1 small onion, diced
1 head broccoli, chopped
3 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy whipping cream
6 ounces grated sharp Cheddar cheese
¼ cup crema con sal (salted Mexican-style sour cream)
1 teaspoon garlic granules
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add onion and butter; saute until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli, chicken broth, and whipping cream.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, for 5 minutes, then switch to the quick-release method to release remaining pressure, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. The soup was still delicious!

I added a few extra ingredients to the soup, like some chopped bacon and diced carrots. It turned out even better than I expected.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I really liked this soup. The cheese and the soup broth masked the broccoli flavor perfectly.

This soup is amazing! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. It's so creamy and cheesy. I love the flavor of the broccoli and the sharp cheddar. I will definitely be making this again.
