29 ounces diced tomatoes with garlic and onion
1 cup half-and-half (10%) cream
1/4 cup butter
freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
To the inner pot, add basil, sugar, broth and tomatoes with juice. Do not stir (see note).
Close and lock the lid and turn the steam release handle to Sealing. Set your Instant Pot to Pressure Cook on High for 5 minutes.
When the cooking time is done, press Cancel and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes, then turn the steam release handle to Venting. When the float valve drops down, remove the lid.
Using an immersion blender, purée soup until smooth (see note).
Set your Instant Pot to Sauté on Less. Stir in cream and butter; cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes or until heated through (do not let boil). Season to taste with pepper.
