These creamy vegan mashed sweet potatoes are the perfect sweet and savory side dish! They’re rich, creamy, easy to make and pair well with any main course, especially during the holiday season.
0 To a large pot, add sweet potatoes and kosher salt. Cover with cold water by 1 inch.
1 Bring to a boil over high heat. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes and set aside.
2 Return the same (now empty) pot to the stove and melt vegan butter over medium heat. Add dairy-free milk, maple syrup, salt and pepper. Whisk to combine and heat for 1-2 minutes, or until warmed through.
3 Add the cooked potatoes back into the pot and use a potato masher to mash until combined and desired consistency is reached.
4 Season to taste and serve warm topped with more butter, fresh thyme leaves, and cinnamon, if desired. Enjoy!
