Fall is my favorite excuse for eating soup every day! One of the best soups is always baked potato, am I right? If you’re really feeling the fall season try out this Instant Pot loaded potato soup recipe by Ashlyn Edwards!

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can/box cream of chicken soup
  • 7-8 medium sized russet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1 inch cubes
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

For Garnish

  • 5-6 slices bacon, (cooked and chopped)
  • sliced green onions
  • shredded cheddar cheese

instructions

  • Place butter in your Instant Pot with the sauté function ready. When the butter has melted, add onions and cook for 3-4 minutes or until onions are soft.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute- stirring constantly!
  • Add chicken broth, cream of chicken, potatoes, salt, and pepper to the pot, and stir, stir, stir!
  • Cover your Instant Pot with the lid and set it to “sealing.”
  • Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes, then quickly release the pressure.
  • While you’re waiting, mix milk and flour in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Once all the steam has escaped the pot and the pin has dropped on the lid, open it and stir in your milk and flour mixture.
  • Turn your pot to sauté and cook for 4-5 minutes, until thickened.
  • Add your 2 cups of cheddar cheese and stir until melted.
  • Top with chopped bacon, green onions, and more cheese as you please!
