Ingredients
- 6 large yukon gold potatoes (or 8-9 small)
- ¼ cup vegan butter
- 1 head garlic
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh chives, chopped for topping
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes if desired, cut them into quarters if the potatoes are large or in half for smaller potatoes, and add to a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch, and 2 tsp of salt.
- Bring the water to boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and cook at a rapid simmer for 15-20 mins. Check that the potatoes are tender, they should easily slide off when pierced with a fork.
- While the potatoes are boiling, prepare the roasted garlic but cutting off the top of the garlic, covering with 1 tbsp olive oil, wrapping in tinfoil and air frying at 390° for 20 mins. (For oven instructions see notes)
- Using a fork, mash together the vegan butter and roasted garlic.
- Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place back into the pot. Mash the potatoes until they are nice and fluffy, then add in your butter mixture, salt and pepper. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Chop with fresh chives, or vegan gravy, serve and enjoy!

Notes
To roast garlic in the oven: follow the same steps above, but instead of the air fryer, roast in the oven at 400° for 40-50 mins. This does take longer than the air fryer version, so it's best to make the roasted garlic ahead.
