This Instant Pot tomato soup recipe is one of the best tomato soups I’ve made to date!

Summer tomatoes are in abundance right now and I had a counter full of them. I needed a way to use them up, but it was 100 F. outside. Gotta love that California heat! (Not!) So I took out my trusty Instant Pot and started chopping veggies. The result was this wonderful, clean eating pressure cooker tomato soup that I served with a crusty, whole grain, garlic bread. Delicious!!

Why Make This Instant Pot Tomato Soup Recipe?

• Make the entire recipe in one pot from start to finish.
• Don’t heat up your whole kitchen.
• Use up the last of those summer tomatoes.
• Make a few batches and freeze for colder evenings.
• You don’t have to babysit it while it cooks.

Recipe Notes

• This will freeze pretty well for up to about 4 months.
• Depending on your blender, you may get it close to smooth, but not completely. If you can’t get it totally smooth, allow it to cool and transfer to a high power blender like a ninja or Vitamix, which can better finish the job. That being said, I didn’t do that and the little bit of texture from the nuts didn’t bother me at all.

Instant Pot Tomato Soup

This delicious soup is a one-pot dish from start to finish. If you can chop veggies, you can easily make this soup! NOTE: While I did not soak my cashews overnight before making this, I would recommend it. A nice, smooth texture would be far easier to achieve with soaked cashews. Just soak them overnight before making this in enough water to cover them, plus a little extra so they stay covered after they expand.

Instructions

• Pour the oil into the IP insert, place inside the IP and press the saute button.
• When the oil has warmed, add the onions, celery, carrots and garlic cloves. Cook until the onions are translucent, stirring occasionally to keep things from burning.
• Turn the IP off and add the remaining ingredients. Stir to combine everything and then secure the lid and vent.
• Press the Manual button and adjust time to 10 minutes. 
• Once the IP has finished, allow a natural release to happen for about 15 minutes. Then you can do a quick release for the remaining steam.
• Using a hand blender, blend the soup directly in the IP until it’s completely smooth. (about 1 to 2 minutes).
• Season to your liking with salt and pepper and serve with homemade, whole grain croutons or a side of crusty, whole grain garlic bread.
