Ingredients to make the best Instant Pot Vegan Zucchini Soup
Zucchini – Fresh Zucchini with skin works well for this recipe
Potato – Makes the soup creamy and adds a great taste as well.
Onion & Garlic – Adds a great aroma and flavour to the Soup
Vegetable Stock – I prefer using vegetable stock because it adds much flavour. You can replace vegetable broth with water.
Salt, Pepper Powder – Seasonings to add taste to the Soup
Coconut Milk – I love adding coconut milk to my soup recipes. Gives a creamy texture and taste to the soup.
Oil or Butter – Ingredients can be sauteed in butter or olive oil.
How to make Vegan Instant Pot Zucchini Potato Soup
Set the Instant Pot to “Sauté” mode. Add oil to the inner pot. Once hot, add chopped onions and garlic. Saute for a couple of minutes.
Add cubed zucchini, peeled and chopped potato, salt and vegetable broth.
Close the lid, and pressure cook for 10 minutes.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release pressure for 7 minutes.
After 7 minutes, quick release the pressure. Carefully open the Instant Pot lid and use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches, blend, and return to the pot.
Add coconut milk to the blended soup and simmer for 2 minutes.
Taste the delicious soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more salt and black pepper to suit your preferences.
Ladle this easy soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, or a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
Serve the Instant Pot Zucchini and Potato Soup hot with your favourite bread bowl on the side.
Variations while making this Creamy Zucchini Soup
I like adding potato because it gives a creamy texture to the Soup. You can omit the potato if you want to keep the soup light.
If you prefer a chunky soup, you can skip the blending step and enjoy it with the vegetables as they are.
Experiment with fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or dill to elevate the flavour.
A sprinkle of Parmesan or cheddar adds a rich and savoury twist.
Add a pinch of onion powder, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce for a kick.
Heavy cream can replace coconut milk. You can also use almond milk or half-and-half.
