This Instant Pot Tomato Soup is a creamy, flavorful comfort food that’s quick and easy to prepare. Made with tomatoes, garlic, onion, and heavy cream, it’s perfect for a cozy meal in just 30 minutes!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried basil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 cans (14.5 oz each) diced tomatoes

2 cups vegetable broth

1 tablespoon tomato paste

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 cup heavy cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add olive oil and chopped onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
  2. Add minced garlic, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Add the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, tomato paste, and sugar. Stir everything together to combine.
  4. Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and set it to manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Allow a natural pressure release for 5 minutes, then quick release any remaining pressure.
  5. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Stir in heavy cream if using, and adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil or croutons if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

This soup freezes well. Let it cool completely before transferring it to a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.

If you prefer a thicker soup, blend a portion of the soup or add cornstarch dissolved in water.

For a spicier version, add red pepper flakes, hot sauce, or chopped jalapeños.
