Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.

Notes

  • 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.
  • Store these scalloped potatoes with almond milk in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days and reheat in the oven or microwave.
