Instant Pot Broccoli Cheese Soup

Step 1

Press the Sauté button on the Instant Pot and add the butter. When the butter is melted stir in the onion and carrots and cook about 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent

Step 2

Stir in the garlic and flour. Cook for 1 minute and then stir in the broth. Continue stirring until no flour lumps remain. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the pot to make sure none of the flour mixture has stuck to the bottom.

Step 3

Add the broccoli to the pot, pop on the lid, and set Instant Pot to cook at High Pressure for 8 minutes.

Step 4

At the end of 8 minutes, do a quick release of pressure, open the lid and turn the pot off. Add in the paprika, and dijon and stir until incorporated.

Step 5

Stir in the cheeses, mixing well until fully melted. Once melted add in the milk and cream, season to taste.

Step 6

Optional: at this point I like to take half the soup and blend until smooth and creamy and then add it back to the pot, it makes for a thicker soup.
