Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 medium carrots, sliced

  • 2 celery ribs, chopped

  • ½ cup chopped onion

  • 4 (15.5 ounce) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained

  • 4 cups chicken broth

  • 2 cups cubed fully cooked ham

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 bay leaf

Directions

  1. Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select Saute function. Melt butter in the pot; add carrots, celery, and onion. Saute until vegetables are tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

  2. Add beans, broth, ham, chili powder, garlic, pepper, and bay leaf to the pot. Close and lock the lid. Select Soup setting according to manufacturers' instructions. Cook until flavors meld, about 30 minutes.

  3. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes.

Cook’s Note

Substitute margarine for the butter if desired.

You can use one 48-ounce jar of mixed beans plus 1 can Northern beans instead of the 4 cans of Northern beans.
