Instant Pot Corn Chowder

Instant Pot Corn Chowder Recipe- This creamy, hearty, and full of flavor Instant Pot Corn Chowder eats more like a meal than a soup.  It has just the right amount of creaminess without being too over the top thick, and it’s also perfectly comforting.

Corn chowder has always been a favorite of mine. Maybe because corn and potato used to be my favorite vegetable as a child. Actually it was probably the only vegetables I used to eat growing up. When I think of all the wasted years and all the good veggies I missed out on.. Well I’m making up for lost time now that’s for sure! 

Instant Pot Corn Chowder is pure comfort food for me. Give me a big bowl of corn chowder or most any good soup and some crusty bread and I am happy.

This chowder is made in the instant pot but you could make it in your slow cooker or stove top if you don’t have an instant top. It will just take you a lot longer. 

Instant Pot Corn Chowder is so easy to make first your ingredients:

6 large red potatoes, diced
2 lbs of frozen corn
1/2 yellow onion, diced
3 C vegetable brother
1 C shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3 C half and half
2 tbsp corn starch
3 tbsp unsalted sweet cream butter
