Equipment
- Large pot
Ingredients
- 4 pounds sweet potatoes
- ½ cup almond milk
- 3 tablespoon vegan butter
- 2 cloves garlic medium
- 1 ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into approximately 1 inch pieces.
- Place the potato chunks in a large pot and fill the pot with enough water to cover the potatoes. Cook over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once it has reached a boil, lower the heat and let the potatoes continue to cook for about 15 more minutes, until you can easily cut them with a fork.
- Once the sweet potatoes have finished cooking, drain them and set aside.
- Combine the vegan butter and minced garlic in the pot and cook for about 2 minutes over medium heat until the garlic becomes fragrant.
- Return the sweet potatoes to the pot along with the remaining ingredients.
- Mash the sweet potatoes and then stir everything together until you have your creamy mashed sweet potatoes. Let them cool slightly before enjoying.
Notes
I recommend peeling the sweet potatoes for a creamier texture, if you prefer not to peel the potatoes, scrub them well before slicing.
