15 Bean Soup Instant Pot Recipe

This Instant Pot soup starts with a package of Hurst’s 15 Bean Soup. It comes with its own seasoning packet, but we’re not going to use it for this recipe.

I used the 6-quart Duo Plus Instant Pot for this soup.

This recipe uses a heaping pile of veggies, making it healthy and so nutritious.

How to Make Bean Soup Using Dried Beans In Your Instant Pot

First, we’ll saute the onion, celery, and garlic in your Instant Pot.

Next, dump everything except the tomatoes and lemon juice into the pot. I also recommend holding off on the salt and pepper until the end. Salt can prevent the beans from cooking properly, so it’s better to season your soup after they are cooked!

The beauty of the Instant Pot is that the dried beans don’t require any soaking at all! If you choose to soak your beans, you will need to adjust the cooking time.

Pour in your broth. Homemade broth is always best, giving the most amount of flavor, but I also use boxed low sodium chicken broth and, lately, I’ve been using Better Than Bouillon chicken base and it is delicious!

When everything is in your pot, it’s time to close the lid, make sure your valve is set to “Sealing”, and set your pot to cook on high pressure for 45 minutes.

When your pot alerts you that the cooking is complete, let the pressure naturally release for 20 minutes, then carefully open the valve to release any remaining pressure.

Made this yesterday, did not use the chili powder, bay leaves, parsley, or mustard. My seasoning packet was Cajun & I used about 1/2 of it plus diced ham. DELICIOUS

I want to make this recipe but don't have an instapot. can I make it in a crock pot or regular stove top pan?

You can absolutely use the same flavors and ingredients but you would definitely need to alter the cooking instructions. Since I haven't tried this recipe in the crockpot or regular stovetop pan, I don't want to lead you astray with recommendations I haven't tried myself!

I made this today. Really didn't change or add anything. I did saute the carrots with the other veggies. DID NOT SOAK BEANS! I would recommend not soaking if doing in Instant Pot. 45 minutes plus 20 minutes rest was just perfect. I used Lawry's Seasoning Salt at the end instead of regular salt and a few grinds of pepper. My WW BLUE says ZERO POINTS when I ran it in the WW recipe builder. VERY delicious and filling. Excited about this recipe

I made this soup today. It’s been cold and stormy outside all day. I didn’t soak the beans prior to pressure cooking. I just tried the finished product and wow this is going to be perfect for dinner. Great instant pot recipe!

Thanks
