Instant Pot Loaded Potato Soup
This Instant Pot Loaded Potato Soup is simple as can be, but every spoonful is supremely delicious. Nothing beats homemade potato soup, whether it’s vegan, vegetarian, has a spicy twist, or is made in the Instant Pot. Creamy, cheesy, and chunky, this comforting soup is my newest go-to recipe for tired weeknights when you want a satisfying meal with easy cleanup. I love serving it garnished with chopped bacon, green onions, and more cheese, it’s a must.
Start by cooking up the onion and garlic in a little butter until soft and fragrant. Add broth, cream of chicken soup, and potatoes. Season with salt and lots of freshly ground black pepper. Cook on high pressure for ten minutes, release the steam, stir in the slurry, which is a mixture of flour and water, cook a little longer, then add the cheese, taste and done. The traditional cheese for this soup is Cheddar, but lately I’ve been using sharp American Cheddar, which adds extra depth to the flavor. Enjoy!
