Description

Instant Pot French Onion Soup is amazing! It's rich, and it's full of flavor. Top it off with the classic French Bread, from the caramelized onions to the melted cheese on top. It is a winner on any stormy or winter night.

Ingredients 

  • 4 large onions
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 5 cups chicken broth or stock (you can use vegetable for vegan recipe)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 large loaf French Bread
  • 1 pound Gruyere Cheese

Instructions

  • Start by slicing the onions thin. Once you have them done, add the butter and oil to your Instant Pot Bowl, then press the saute button.
  • Once the butter starts to melt, and the oil is hot, add your onions.
  • Remember to keep on moving the onions so they don't stick and then eventually burn.
  • Once the onions are cooked, add your broth or stock.
  • Then add your lid, and set the manual high pressure for 10 minutes. When the timer beeps, just let it naturally release.
  • When you can, remove the lid, mix well.
  • Then place a piece of french bread into each bowl, then pour the soup into them. Top each bowl with a portion of cheese.
  • Broil until the cheese is melted.
  • Remove and let the soup cool a bit before serving.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
