Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Light sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch chunks for even cooking.
Step 2
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Step 3
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Step 4
Drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot. Allow them to sit for a minute to let excess moisture evaporate.
Step 5
Using a potato masher or an electric hand mixer, mash the potatoes until smooth.
Step 6
Slowly add the almond milk and light sour cream while continuing to mash, until the desired creaminess is achieved.
Step 7
Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 8
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with fresh chives, if desired.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy!
