< Back Holiday Mashed Potatoes Prep Time: 30 Cook Time: 1 hour Serves: 10 Level: Beginner Plus About the Recipe Ingredients 1 head garlic 1 lb yukon gold potatoes 1 lb russet potatoes 2 tsp salt 3/4 cup plant milk of choice 6 Tbs vegan butter 2 Tbs white miso paste 1 tsp black pepper, freshly cracked Preparation Prep Remove butter from the fridge to soften. Remove the outer layers of the garlic head and then slice off a thin layer off the top to expose the skin of the cloves. Rub the exposed cloves with a bit of olive oil. Wrap in parchment paper and then in foil to make a packet, and then place in the oven at 400°F for 35-45 minutes until soft and tender and lightly golden. Make If you choose, peel the potatoes and then rinse them in cold water. Chop the potatoes into fourths. Place the potatoes in a large Dutch oven and add enough water to cover them. Add 1 tbsp of the kosher salt and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, and then cook until the potatoes are fork-tender and very soft when poked, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander. Then return the potatoes back to the pot. Heat over low heat for a few minutes, tossing the potatoes around to prevent them from sticking. This removes any remaining moisture in the potatoes. Once the butter is softened, place it in a small bowl and add the miso paste. Using a fork, cream them together until well combined. Heat a small or medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the miso butter and stir to combine. Once it’s almost melted, pour in the lite coconut milk. Whisk often to combine and stir until melted. Add a bit of freshly cracked black pepper. Keep the mixture on low heat to stay warm until you’re ready to add to the potatoes. Grab a large bowl. If you are using a ricer, add the potatoes to the ricer and pass them through into a large bowl. Then add the warm miso butter-coconut milk combo and fold gently with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon. Taste for seasonings and add a bit more kosher salt, as needed, and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Previous Next

Line an 8×8* pan with parchment paper with overhang and grease the pan with cooking spray. To make flax egg – In a small bowl, whisk ground flax seed and 5 tablespoon of water. Set aside. To make simple syrup – In a sauce pan over medium heat, add cane sugar and ½ cup water. Stir to combine, heat for about 6-8 minutes, and the sugar has dissolved completely. (DO NOT add more water. DO NOT let come to a boil or the mixture will evaporate) While waiting, in a large bowl, add in the flour*, cocoa, powdered sugar, espresso powder (if adding), and salt. Whisk together. Once simple syrup is ready, while hot, add it along with vegetable oil, vanilla, and flax egg. Combine with a spatula just until combined. Do not overmix. Batter should be fudgy and pourable. If adding walnuts, add now along with ½ cup vegan chocolate chips. Fold to combine. Do not over mix. Pour batter into greased pan. Top with remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips. Bake for 35-40 minutes. A toothpick may not come out clean since they are fudgy. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing . The brownies need time to set up. For a firmer brownie, place in fridge. Slice in 16 equal sized pieces (or desired size) Store leftovers in an air tight container. Previous Next
