How to Make Ham and Bean Soup in Pressure Cooker? First of all, it’s super easy to make Instant Pot Pressure Cooker ham and bean soup. Seriously, we never thought making ham and bean soup would be this easy. Second of all, we’ve made so many variations of ham and bean soup in the stove top and the slow cooker. With different tests of soaking and not-soaking the beans, the flavors are great but they all take time to prepare.

Using regular chopped cooked ham will give you lots of flavor. But if you decide to use a smoked ham hock, you’ll have even more flavor and be super delighted with the outcome.
