Super simple Instant Pot Creamy Mushroom Soup. The perfect cozy bowl of rich and creamy mushroom soup when you are craving something warm on a cold night. Finish each bowl off with a grind or two of fresh black pepper and serve with crusty bread, and you’ve created a restaurant-quality meal.
The soup is all made in one pot, and I really do like using my Instant Pot in this recipe. The first step requires you to melt some butter. Then sauté onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Then just stir in the chicken broth, sherry, dried thyme, Worcestershire sauce, salt and black pepper. Cook in the Instant Pot. When the soup is done, add the cream-flour mixture and simmer for another 2-3 minutes until thickened. If you want a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to blend roughly half the soup. Make sure to keep some mushroom pieces whole for texture. Ladle the creamy mushroom soup into the bowls and serve hot.
To make this Instant Pot Creamy Mushroom Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
Set the Instant Pot to SAUTÉ mode. Melt 2 tablespoons butter and add finely chopped onion. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add 2 minced cloves garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add 1 ½ pounds sliced fresh mushrooms and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
Stir in 4 cups chicken broth, ½ cup sherry, 1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Secure the lid and close the steam vent. Select MANUAL function and set the timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10-15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release the pressure using the natural-release method, about 10 minutes. Release the remaining steam carefully using the quick-release valve. Then unlock and remove the lid.
Select SAUTÉ mode again and bring the soup to a light simmer. In a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 1 cup heavy cream. Slowly add the cream mixture to the simmering soup, whisking constantly until thickened for about 2-3 minutes. Turn the Instant Pot off and season the soup with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve hot and enjoy!
