Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes Ingredients

  • 1 medium cauliflower head, break into florets
  • 1/4 cup non-dairy butter, (I used Earth Balance)
  • 1 garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon fresh chives, chopped

How To Make Vegan Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes

For this easy cauliflower mashed potatoes recipe, I substituted the butter found in a traditional mashed potato recipe with vegan butter.

I didn’t want a soupy cauliflower mashed potato because cauliflower already contains more water than potatoes. 

I steamed the cauliflower florets until tender

Place the cauliflower in a  food processor, I then add vegan butter, garlic, and salt. Stir in chopped chives and serve.

That’s basically it, my recipe is very simple yet the best cauliflower mashed potatoes ever.

My secret tool to use for a creamy mashed cauliflower is my food processor. The food processor ensures you don’t have that gritty texture of cooked cauliflower, along with the vegan butter for that buttery taste.
