Ingredients
- 1 (2-3 pound) large butternut squash, peeled, seeded, cut into 2-inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves
- 3 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 3 sage leaves, chopped
- 1 sprig rosemary
- ½ cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for dairy-free option)
Garnishes (optional)
- toasted pepitas
- chopped fresh parsley
- chopped cooked bacon
Instructions
- To the Instant Pot, select the [Sauté] mode. Wait until the pot is "hot", then add olive oil and yellow onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until the onion is translucent. Press [Cancel].
- Stir in the garlic. Then, deglaze the pot with chicken broth. Add butternut squash, salt, pepper, sage, and rosemary.
- Close the lid. Set the instant pot to [Pressure Cook] on high pressure for 10 minutes. When the cooking function ends, quick release the pressure by turning the pressure release valve to the "venting" position. Remove and discard the rosemary. Add the heavy cream.
- Use an immersion blender (or traditional blender working in 2 batches) to purée the soup.
- Serve hot with your favorite garnishes.
