How to Make Slow Cooker Broccoli Cheddar Soup
- Wash and chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- In a slow cooker, combine the cooked onion and garlic mixture, broccoli florets, chicken broth, milk, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper.
- Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours, or until the broccoli is tender.
- Carefully use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth (or transfer in batches to a regular blender).
- Stir in the remaining cheddar cheese until melted and creamy.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Garnish with extra cheddar cheese, fresh chives, or a swirl of cream (optional) and serve hot!
