Instant Pot® Vegan Cauliflower Soup

1. Combine vegetable stock, cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, onion, salt, and pepper in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select Soup/Broth setting according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

2. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Use an immersion blender to carefully puree soup until smooth. Drizzle olive oil once soup is smooth with the blender running.

3. Taste soup and season with more salt and pepper, if needed.

Cook's Note:

I use a quality vegetable bouillon powder for this soup, which adds a lot of seasoning and flavor, omitting the need for additional seasoning. If you use a salt-free or homemade vegetable stock, you will have to add more salt.
