- 7 cups peeled and thinly sliced white or yellow potatoes
- 3 cups unsweetened almond milk (or substitute your preferred plant-based milk)
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot starch
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped garlic
- 1 tablespoon oil (to grease the pan)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- Optional: garnish with finely chopped fresh chives
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large mixing bowl, add the almond milk, nutritional yeast, arrowroot starch, chopped garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, and thyme, then whisk well.
Peel then thinly slice the potatoes (approximately 1/8 inch is perfect). You can slice them by hand or use a mandolin or food processor.
Use the oil to grease a large baking dish (I used a 9 x 13 inch rectangular dish, but any shape dish of a similar size will work).
Layer the potato slices evenly in the baking dish, then pour the almond milk mixture overtop.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, then bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour.
Remove the aluminium foil then continue to bake for an additional 15 minutes, uncovered.
Let rest for 5-10 minutes, then garnish with chopped fresh chives (optional) before serving.

Optional additions: add 1 tablespoon each of chopped fresh herbs such as sage, parsley, or basil if desired. Or if you're a fan of vegan cheese, top this dish with shredded dairy-free cheese before baking.
