Preparation

Step 1

Place everything in the Instant Pot.
Set the Instant Pot on "Soup" for 35 minutes.
When it's done, let the pressure go down for a few minutes then quick release.
Take out the ham hock (if you used one) and bay leaves and serve up in soup bowls.
When or if you need a more meaty 9 Bean Soup, you can add a pound of Pork Shoulder that's diced into smaller pieces.
