Broccoli and Stilton soup maker soup is quick and easy to make, and it tastes amazing!
Like my broccoli and cheddar soup, this recipe requires very few ingredients and is a handy way to use up any extra cheese you might have hanging around.
Read on to see how to make broccoli and Stilton soup in a soup maker.
How To Make Broccoli and Stilton Soup in a Soup Maker
This recipe has been made in both a Ninja Soup Maker, and a Morphy Richards Soup Maker – but it can be adapted to any soup maker, or made in a pot on the stove and blended afterwards.
What You Need
For exact ingredients and more concise instructions please head down to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
- Onion and garlic
- Fresh broccoli
- Celery (optional)
- Potato (Maris Piper works well)
- Stock (vegetable or chicken stock)
- Stilton cheese
- Seasoning according to taste
You can optionally sauté the onion and garlic if your soup maker has this option – if not, feel free to skip this step, I usually do these days!
Add all the remaining ingredients, apart from the cheese. I just wash and chop the potato; I don’t bother to peel it. If you are using a fresh broccoli head, use all of it, including the stalk, chopped up.
If you have any, you can add in celery for some extra flavour, or some leek.
I quite often get asked about stock for my soups in the soup maker. I mainly use stock pots rather than cubes and occasionally use homemade ones. More recently I have been using the buillon stock powder (as pictured above).
I tend to put the stock pot directly in the soup maker and then add hot water from the kettle to the MAX line on the soup maker. You can also add cold water; many people from my soup maker Facebook group do this successfully.
Set the soup maker off on smooth and leave it to do its work.
Remove the lid and stir in the crumbled Stilton at the end of the soup maker cycle. I like to give the soup maker a quick manual blend to make sure the cheese is well mixed and melted in the soup. Give the soup a taste and add seasoning if needed.
If you like, you can reserve a bit to crumble on top when serving the soup.
Optionally, serve with croutons on top and some crusty bread. Yum!
Can You Freeze Broccoli and Stilton Soup?
You can freeze broccoli and Stilton soup for up to 3 months. You can freeze it with the Stilton stirred in already, but this may change the texture slightly, but it shouldn’t affect the taste.
How Long Does This Soup Last?
Broccoli and Stilton soup lasts up to 3 days in the fridge.
I hope you like this recipe. Let me know in the comments if you make it!

Hi, yes it can be made in a pan, I would follow the same instructions and simmer for around 10 to 15 minutes. Keep an eye on the consistency as you might need to add a little more stock.

Making this tomorrow, it looks delicious! I plan to freeze it in portions, should I add the Stilton before freezing or when I come to reheat? Thank you
