Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb gold potatoes peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup non-dairy milk
  • 4 tbsp vegan butter
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • Kosher salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional garnish: Extra virgin olive oil and minced parsley

Instructions

  • Place the potatoes in a soup pot and cover them with water by an inch. Bring to a boil and let it cook until potatoes are fork tender, about 15 minutes (adjust depending on the size of your potatoes).
  • Once the potatoes are done, drain the water. While still hot, add in all the remaining ingredients.
  • Mash with a potato masher then transfers to a serving platter. Drizzle with a bit of extra virgin olive oil and garnish with parsley.

Notes

  • Storing leftovers: Store leftover mashed potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Freezing: Vegan mashed potatoes will keep for a month or two in a freezer-safe container. I like to use a freezer bag because they lie flat in the freezer. There’s no need to thaw them before reheating.
  • Reheating: To reheat individual portions, use the microwave. If you have larger amounts, heat them in a heavy pan or skillet on the stove over low heat or put them into a baking dish, cover with foil, and heat them at 350°F until heated through.
  • What to Consider: to make an extra creamy mashed potato, add 1/4 cup of vegan cream cheese.
