Instructions
  1. Cook onions and bacon together in a frying pan until bacon is cooked but soft, and onions are translucent.
  2. Slice 2 heirloom carrots (or the skinny end of a couple carrots) as thin as you are able. Put these into a small bowl or cup and add enough white vinegar to cover them. Let these pickle until the soup is finished.
  3. Chop remaining carrots into 1 inch long pieces.
  4. Put broth and chopped carrots into the Instant Pot, set to manual (high) for 4 minutes. When time is up, use natural pressure release.
  5. Once cooked, use an immersion blender to break down the carrots into a smooth soup.
  6. Stir in onions and bacon, add salt, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup to taste.
  7. Serve topped with some of the pickled carrots. Enjoy!

    AMAZING! I will be adding this to my rolodex of instant pot soups! I got all the ingredients fresh at the farmer’s market. So yummy!

    I followed the instructions. I didn’t like much this soup. I cut the vinegar cider to 1/3 cup. Not enough kick in it.
