Ingredients
 
 

  • 3 to 4 Yukon gold potatoes peeled and chopped, about (26 ounces)
  • ½ cup nondairy milk unsweetened and unflavored
  • ½ cup vegan sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter divided
  • ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder or to taste
  • Chives for garnish

Instructions
 

  • In a medium pot add the potatoes and cover with 3 cups of water. Add some salt like you would salt pasta water. Boil for 30 minutes, or until fork tender.
  • Once done boiling drain excess water and remove from heat.
  • Add in nondairy milk, vegan sour cream, 2 tablespoons (28g) vegan butter, salt, and garlic powder.
  • Use a potato masher or back of a fork to mash until it reaches your desired consistency. Some people prefer very whipped creamy smooth mashed potatoes and others prefer a bit of texture, so mash to your preference. A tip I learned from my friend Sara (@thebetterfoodguru) is to use a whisk to whip up the mashed potatoes!
  • Transfer into warm serving dish. Add the remaining tablespoon of vegan butter on top of the mashed potatoes in little cubes. They will melt and add extra buttery-goodness on top. Add the chives and enjoy.
