Easy Keto Pickle Soup Recipe - easy and indulgent creamy dill pickle soup recipe that fits into a low carb, keto diet!
Sour and creamy, pickles and cauliflower don't seem like they should go together... but when you taste this easy keto soup - inspired by Polish pickle soups I've had when traveling in Poland, but with a low carb twist - you'll get why this indulgent soup is one of our family's favorites!
This soup is both filling, but not overpowering - sour, but creamy - with earthy notes and a fresh dill flavor.
Keto soups like my tuscan sausage soup or my instant pot broccoli cheddar soup are so rich, hearty, and filling - and this pickle soup is no different!
It's interesting and delicious - and smells amazing when cooking (don't worry, I actually hate the smell of pickles, but I was drooling over the smell of this amazing soup the whole time I made it.)
This keto pickle soup is the low carb twist to this easy Polish Pickle Soup recipe - to make it easier, I have each version separated so it is simple to follow.

Keto Pickle Soup Recipe
Easy Keto Pickle Soup Recipe - easy and indulgent creamy dill pickle soup recipe that fits into a low carb, keto diet!
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil or butter
- 1 leek (just the white and light green parts), diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- ½ onion, diced
- 1 jar dill pickles, diced (save one to slice into thin rounds to garnish, as pictured)
- 6 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 3 ½ cups cauliflower florets
- 1 tbsp dried marjoram
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 cups chicken bone broth
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
- optional: pork or chicken bones
Instructions
On The Stovetop:
- In a large dutch oven or heavy stock pot, heat oil or butter and heat on medium high until shiny/melted - about 35 seconds.
- Add leek, carrots, celery, and onion.
- Cook until softened and lightly browned, about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Add garlic and continue to brown vegetables until garlic is soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Add diced pickles, stir. Set pickle juice aside - do not drain.
- Add marjoram, cauliflower, salt and pepper, stir.
- Add in pickle jar juice and stock and bring to a boil.
- Optional: for traditional Polish flavor, add chicken or pork bones to soup while boiling (remove before serving, this is just for additional hearty flavor).
- Let soup boil until slightly reduced and potatoes are soft.
- Lightly mash cauliflower in soup with back of a spoon or a potato masher, there should still be chunks - but we want smashed boiled cauliflower for a lovely thick soup.
- Stir well to mix.
- Turn stove off.
- Stir in cream, whisking to combine as it is added.
- Return heat to pan and bring back to boil.
- Reduce heat and let thicken, about five minutes.
- Serve with thin slices of pickle and fresh minced dill.
In an Instant Pot:
