One-Pot Potato Soup You’ll Make Weekly

A rich, smooth, and easy one-pot potato soup perfect for fall or winter meals. Budget-friendly and beginner-approved, this comforting soup combines tender potatoes with creamy broth and flavorful seasonings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 carrots, chopped
  • 3 celery sticks, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, sliced
  • 1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 ½ pounds Yukon potatoes, peeled and cubed into ½-inch cubes
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • Sour cream, for serving
  • Chives, for serving

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook the vegetables until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the potatoes and the broth, and bring to a boil for about 5 minutes. Then lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and continue cooking until the potatoes are fork tender, about 25-30 minutes.
  3. Remove the pot from the heat, and stir in the milk.
  4. Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth.
  5. Serve the soup with sour cream and chives, if desired.

Notes

This soup is easy to make in one pot and can be customized with toppings like crispy bacon or shredded cheese. Using an immersion blender makes blending safer and easier. For a lighter version, substitute milk with a lower-fat option.
