Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Instant pot broccoli soup is rich, creamy, delicious, and utterly delicious. Made from just five ingredients, this soup is simple yet tasteful.

Above all, you can make it in an instant pot in no more than 15 minutes! Super convenient, isn’t it?

Fall is a season we all love! It has its vibe and aura. Fall is a clear sign of the end of summer and the fact that winters are just around the corner. Just as the leaves start to turn brown and shed, we all look for ways to enjoy the season by feeling warm and comfortable in our homes.

Fall is not just about pumpkins and lattes, but it is also a comforting and tasteful food that you can enjoy on your sofa watching your favorite movie! So, if you are looking for a quick, tasteful, and comforting recipe to try for a fall lunch or dinner, I have just the one for you!

Broccoli Cheddar Soup Ingredients Breakdown

Instant Pot Broccoli Cheddar Soup Ingredients

Making broccoli soup is very easy. All thanks to the simple ingredients and instant pot. Here is what you need to make this rich and tasteful soup:

Broccoli: the main ingredient for this soup dish is broccoli. You can go for both fresh and frozen broccoli, but make sure you use the stems as well. When buying fresh broccoli, make sure it is fresh and has a vibrant green color. Avoid the one that is soggy or has brown patches. The stem should also be fresh and firm.

Instant Pot Broccoli Cheddar Soup Cut Up

Garlic: garlic adds a depth of flavor to the soup. You can also use garlic powder if you don't want to use fresh garlic.

Onion: for a savory flavor, onion is just the right ingredient. I have used white onion for this recipe because of its slightly sweet flavor.

Heavy cream: the creaminess and richness of this soup come from heavy cream. If you want a vegan broccoli cheddar soup, choose coconut milk or coconut cream instead.

Cheese: cheddar cheese is a perfect choice to give the soup a thick consistency, make it richer, and of course, cheesy. For a vegan version, choose vegan cheese.

Cooked Broccoli and Broccoli Stems

How to Store Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Soup?
