minutesThese creamy mashed potatoes are fluffy, smooth, and great for a weeknight dinner or holiday turkey!
Ingredients
4 large russet potatoes, cleaned, peeled and chopped
1 stick of AG Safe plant butter, cubed. (At time of writing this recipe, ‘Country Crock Plant Butter-olive oil’ was listed green/safe on the Fig app for alpha-gal.)
1 cup of plant-based milk, keep in mind if using oat milk you might need more because of high starch content. I prefer full fat oat milk in this recipe.
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste.
Directions
- Place potatoes in pot. Add enough cold water to cover potatoes by 1 inch, making sure they are fully submerged for even cooking. Pro Tip-add pinch of salt to water.
- Boil until fork tender (approx.15 mins).
- Remove pot from heat and carefully drain potatoes and return to pot on a burner that is off.(Do not place pan with drained potatoes back onto heat.)
- Mash potatoes using your preferred method. I like a good ole manual potato masher!
- Add plant butter, plant based milk, and spices listed above and combine until well incorporated.
- Remember to taste for salt before serving.
