You really don’t need a masher to make fluffy mashed potatoes. You can very well use a fork.

HOW LONG DO YOU BOIL POTATOES FOR CREAMY VEGAN MASHED POTATOES?

This really depends on the size of the cubes of the cut potatoes. It is really important not to over boil your potatoes or your mashed potatoes will be runny and watery.

Pay attention after the first 6-8 minutes of boiling and insert the tip of a knife into the cubes.

If they are tender, drain them. Cutting all cubes roughly the same size assures an even cooking time for all potato cubes.

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO REHEAT CREAMY VEGAN MASHED POTATOES

You can microwave leftover dairy-free mashed potatoes or reheat them on the stovetop.

The best way to get them creamy again is to add a tablespoon of water or dairy-free milk before reheating them.

This will make up for any moisture they might have lost during refrigeration.
