Ingredients

  • 4 thick-cut bacon slices cut into cubes
  • 3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes washed
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 ounces cream cheese cut into small cubes
  • 1 pint half and half
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 2 green onions sliced

Instructions

  • Set your instant pot to saute and cook the bacon pieces. Hit cancel.
  • Drain the fat and reserve the cooked bacon in a bowl.
  • Place the whole potatoes, chicken broth, salt, and pepper in the bowl of the Instant Pot. Cover with the lid and set it to soup for 10 minutes.
  • Once complete, quick pressure release. Unplug the instant pot.
  • Using an emulsion blender or potato masher, blend up the potatoes and broth until only a few chunks are left.
