Notes
If it's your first time using the Instant Pot, it may seem like nothing is happening after setting the timer. This is because the Instant Pot will take about 20 minutes to come to pressure before the actual cooking countdown begins.
Add all the ingredients (except for the vegan cream cheese) to a large pot, stir to combine, and bring to a boil. Then, reduce heat and simmer for 25 minutes. Finally, stir in the cream cheese.
Allow your Instant Pot white bean soup to cool, and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the vegan white bean soup for one month. Just thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating it on the stove.
