These Dairy Free Mashed Potatoes are perfectly smooth, creamy, flavorful! Easy to make in the Instant Pot or on the stove.

Ingredients 

  • 9-10 cups roughly chopped potatoes, 6-7 average russet potatoes
  • 1-2 cups chicken broth, or vegetable broth if making vegan, divided
  • ½ cup dairy free butter, I used Melt
  • Salt and parsley to taste

Instructions 

  • Wash and peel potatoes. Cut into large chunks - if you are using average-sized russet potatoes, slice in half lengthwise then slice again 4-5 times. You should have 9-10 cups of potato chunks.

Instant Pot Directions:

  • Add potato chunks and 1 cup broth to your Instant Pot.
  • Close the lid and be sure it is set to sealed, not venting.
  • Pressure cook on high for 9 minutes, then quick release.
  • Once the pressure is released, add dairy free butter and ½ cup broth and mix. You can mix in the Instant Pot or in a separate bowl, with a hand mixer or mash by hand.
  • Add additional broth if needed (I used close to 2 cups) and salt to taste. Sprinkle with fresh or dried parsley for garnish if you want and serve!

Stove-Top Directions:

  • Wash and peel potatoes. Cut into large chunks - if you are using average-sized russet potatoes, slice in half lengthwise then slice again 4-5 times. You should have 9-10 cups of potato chunks.
  • Add potatoes and 1 ½ cups broth to a large pot, cover, and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender - about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer to a large bowl, add ½ cup butter and additional broth if needed, and mix until smooth. Add salt to taste and sprinkle with fresh or dried parsley.

Notes

The amount of salt is not specified because it will vary depending on the type of broth you use (chicken or vegetable, low-sodium or not) and personal preference.
