Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel and grate 2 large apples (such as McIntosh).
  2. Heat butter in a pressure cooker or large pot over medium heat.
  3. Sauté chopped onions until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add sliced celery and chopped sweet potatoes, tossing to coat in butter.
  5. Stir in grated apples, 5 cups of stock (chicken, beef, or vegetable), 1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange zest, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  6. Lock the lid on the pressure cooker and bring to high pressure.
  7. Adjust heat to maintain pressure and cook for 4 minutes.
  8. Allow pressure to drop naturally or quick-release under cold water.
  9. Carefully remove the lid.
