This Instant Pot Golden Milk White Bean Soup makes for one healthy, hearty, comforting and delicious pressure-cooker meal!
This super creamy Instant Pot white bean soup was inspired by my love of golden milk this time of year. I just cannot get enough of warming spices and the all-amazing turmeric.
Throw in the ease of an Instant Pot and I’m all ears (or spoons!). . .
Recipe Features
- Is easy to make
- Requires no prior soaking of the beans
- Can be left as is for a hearty & chunky version or blended for a super creamy version
- Contains all the health benefits of the amazing golden milk
- Is packed with fiber, protein, and iron
- Is gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and DELICIOUS!
I like to blend half of the soup and leave the rest chunky and then top with hemp seeds and a hefty dollop of coconut yogurt. But, you can certainly make it your own — it is wholly versatile! And, if you’re looking for the crème de la crème of ground turmeric, then I cannot recommend Suncore Foods amazing turmeric powder straight from Bolivia enough! It is ridiculously vibrant and flavorful.
Enjoy! xo.
Top Tip
The fresher and newer your dried white beans are, the softer and more tender the results will be. If your beans are still tough after cooking, place the lid back and cook at high pressure in 10 minute increments until tender.

How long should I cook in instant pot if using canned beans? Thanks!
Kristen Wood says
Hi, Christina - 10 minutes should be sufficient. The 2 cups of dried beans in this recipe is equivalent to 6 cups of canned beans. If only using 2-3 cups of canned beans, you will want to reduce broth/water to 3 cups! I hope this helps!
