🥔 Why You’ll Love These Dairy-Free Mashed Potatoes

  • ✅ Rich and creamy without butter or milk
  • ✅ 100% vegan and allergy-friendly
  • ✅ Just a few pantry ingredients
  • ✅ Perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or weeknight dinners
  • ✅ Customizable with your favorite herbs and add-ins

🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4–6)

  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 3–4 tbsp olive oil (or vegan butter substitute)
  • 1/2–3/4 cup unsweetened plant-based milk (like almond, oat, or soy)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
  • Optional: fresh chives, parsley, or rosemary for garnish

👩‍🍳 How to Make Dairy-Free Mashed Potatoes

Step 1: Boil the Potatoes

Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 15–20 minutes, or until fork-tender.

Step 2: Drain and Mash

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot or a large bowl. Let them sit for 1–2 minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate.

Mash using a potato masher or hand mixer until smooth.

Step 3: Add Oil and Milk

Add olive oil, plant-based milk, salt, pepper, and garlic (if using). Stir until creamy and well combined. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk as needed.

🧄 Tip: For garlic lovers, sauté the garlic in olive oil first to mellow the flavor.

Step 4: Taste and Serve

Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with a bit of olive oil, and top with fresh herbs.

🔁 Recipe Variations

Variation Ingredient Swap or Add-In
Extra Creamy Use full-fat coconut milk or cashew cream
Herb-infused Stir in fresh thyme, parsley, or dill
Garlic Mashed Roast a head of garlic and mash it in
Mashed Sweet Potatoes Use sweet potatoes instead of white

🧊 Storage & Reheating

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days
  • Reheat on stovetop or microwave with a splash of plant milk to restore texture
  • Freeze for up to 1 month, though texture may slightly change

🍽️ What to Serve With

  • Vegan Mushroom Gravy
  • Roasted Vegetables
  • Lentil Loaf or Plant-Based Meatloaf
  • Grilled Chicken or Turkey (for non-vegan meals)
