Ingredients
Let's gather the ingredients!
- 4 pounds butternut squash
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 small onion chopped
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 4 small yellow potatoes
- 3 cups chicken stock or vegetable stock
- ½ tsp cinnamon ground
- ¼ tsp nutmeg ground
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Instructions
Let's Begin!
- Start by washing 2 butternut squash and placing them inside your Instant Pot. Add 2 cups of water, seal the pot, and pressure cook on high for 20 minutes.
- While the squash is cooking, heat oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.
- Add the garlic to the pot and sauté for another minute.
- Add the broth, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the pot with the sautéed onions and garlic.
- Once the cooking time is up, you can either do a quick pressure release or let the pressure release naturally.
- Carefully remove the cooked squash from the Instant Pot and let it cool slightly. Then, peel off the skin and remove the seeds. Cut the squash into chunks.
- Add the potato and squash chunks to the pot with the sautéed onions, garlic, and spices.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches until smooth.
- Return the blended soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream. Heat the soup over low heat until warmed through.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Serve the soup hot and enjoy its creamy and comforting flavors. Optionally, you can garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of cream for added visual appeal.
