    Broccoli almond soup recipe

    Almond Broccoli Soup is a creamy rich vegan and gluten free soup. It is so mild and hence perfect for the kids. Minimal prep work is the basic pantry ingredients. I believe these reasons are just perfect for cooking this up

    Ingredients

    Almond - Add good quality almonds. This is the heart of the soup. almonds make the soup rich and creamy. Plus they are less in carbs.

    Broccoli - Always use fresh green broccoli florets.

    Coconut milk - This adds a lot in enhancing the flavor of the soup. I am using my homemade coconut milk. You may use the storebought ones too.

    Onion - Makes a nice add on and improves the taste and texture.

    Garlic - Enhances the flavor of the soup.

    Seasonings - I kept it simple, Just the basics. Salt and pepper. But you may also sprinkle in some chill flakes if you like them.

    Instant Pot Almond Broccoli Soup

    For the Instant Pot version, you may follow the same recipe as well. Switch on Instant Pot in Saute mode and then add in garlic, onion, broccoli, Almonds, and water. Close the Instant Pot and cook for 5 mins in high pressure.

    Do a quick pressure release after 10 mins and open the Instant Pot. Using an immersion blend the soup to a fine puree. Switch on the instant pot in saute mode again and then add in the seasonings cook for 2 mins and then add in the coconut milk and switch off the Instant Pot.

    How to prepare broccoli and almond soup

    1.Soak the almonds in Hot water for 1 hour. After soaking if you press the skin light it will come off easily. Remove the skin of the Almonds.

    2. In a cooker add in 2 tsp of Oil. Once it's hot add in the chopped garlic and saute for few secs. Now add in the chopped Onions. Saute till the onions soften.

    3. Now add in the broccoli florets and saute in medium flame for a min.

    4. Next, add in the Soaked Almonds. Combine everything and cook for a min.

    5. Add in 2 cups of water and the required Salt. Combine once again and close the cooker and pressure cook for 2 whistles on a high flame.

    6. Wait till the pressure gets released by itself and then open the cooker.

    7. Allow it to cool down and blend well to a fine puree. You may also use your immersion blender.

    8. Put the soup back on the cooker and heat it for another 2 mins. Add in the pepper powder and combine.

    9. Finally, add in the coconut milk and switch off the flame. Serve hot with some sliced almonds as garnish.

    Creamy broccoli and almond soup is now ready.

    Tips & Variations

    • You may use cashew nuts too in place of almonds, but I prefer the taste of almonds over cashews in this soup.
    • I am using coconut milk you may also try almond milk. You can also use dairy for the nonvegan version of the soup.
    • You can also squeeze in some lemon juice and serve the soup.
    • We may also add in frozen broccoli.
    • You may also cook in the Instant Pot. For the Instant Pot version follow the same recipe and cook for 5 mins in pressure cook mode and then do a natural pressure release after 10 mins. Followed by the addition of coconut milk.

    Storing Suggestions

    Since you have coconut milk added I don't recommend storing or freezing the soup. However, you can skip coconut milk and then store the soup. It stays good for 4 days in the fridge or you may freeze it for 3 months. Just before serving thaw the soup bring it to a boil and then add in the coconut milk and serve.

    Serving Suggestions

    It is a rich soup and hence makes a filling dinner option. Goes well with some crusty bread and a salad for dinner.
