Vegan Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Our oh-so-delicious garlic mashed potatoes are reminiscent of the classic dish we dairy-free eaters often long for. Swapping butter and milk for homemade cashew cream and nutritional yeast, our plant-based version of a beloved staple is ready in less than an hour!

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs potatoes, unpeeled
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 cup raw cashews
  • 1 cup water

Directions

  1. Soak 1 cup of cashews in 1 cup of water and let sit for at least 6 hours.
  2. Rinse cashews and combine with 1 fresh cup of water, and blend on high in a blender until smooth.
  3. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, adding in potatoes carefully, and boil for a minimum of 30 minutes, until a knife can cleanly be pulled in and out of a potato.
  4. Once fully boiled, rinse potatoes and keep in the large pot they were boiled in.
  5. Add in garlic, olive oil, salt, nutritional yeast and cashew cream, mashing until smooth. Enjoy!
