These vegan scalloped potatoes are a great holiday meal to serve your non-vegan guests and they will definitely enjoy!
I had about 2 bags of organic potatoes that were just starting to sprout so I decided I had to prepare them or else I might just have to put them in the garden. Preparing this Vegan Scalloped Potatoes recipe, was the perfect way for me to use up my potatoes. My Caramelized Onion Mashed Potatoes and Jamaican Spicy Potato Curry are next on my list to get the rest all used up.
What Potatoes To Use For Homemade Scalloped Potatoes
I love to use organic Yukon gold potatoes because they have a buttery taste, they help to create a creamy sauce and they don’t disintegrate during cooking.

How To Make Vegan Scalloped Potatoes
- First, scrub, peel whole potatoes and cut into slices, about 1/8 inch thickness. Preheat oven 400 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, prepare the cheesy sauce in a high-speed blender. Drain and rinse cashews, place in a high-speed blender or food processor with vegetable broth, yeast flakes, coconut milk, onion, garlic, salt, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Process until smooth and creamy.
- Layer potatoes, green onions, and sauce in a casserole dish. Bake for 40 minutes covered and 20 minutes uncovered.
- Note that the time takes to fully cook potatoes depend on the thickness of your slices
- For an extra cheesy scalloped potato that is reminiscent of potatoes au gratin, top with a cup of your favorite vegan cheese shreds.
Note: Make your vegan scalloped potatoes 2-3 days ahead and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
