Low-FODMAP Creamy Thyme Mashed Potatoes; Gluten-free, Vegan
Although this recipe has not been tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients
Serves 6
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 25 min
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes (approximately 5-6 medium size potatoes)
- 4 tablespoons vegan margarine, or butter (for non-vegan version) softened
- 4-6 tablespoons canned coconut cream or low-FODMAP milk such as almond milk
- I prefer coconut cream for a richer flavor
- You could also use lactose-free milk for non-vegan version
- This is NOT the same as ‘cream of coconut’
- Read my low-FODMAP Grocery shopping blog for tips on purchasing this ingredient if you haven’t before
- If you need a Kosher for Passover version, check out Trader Joe’s
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme or 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- Can also substitute 1 teaspoon low-FODMAP Happy Spices Italian Seasoning for a subtle variation in flavor (so good)
- Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
Directions
- Wash and dice potatoes into 1-2 inch chunks
- Skin can be left on based on your preference if you prefer a smoother mashed potato, peel them first.)
- Boil the potatoes in salted water in a large pot until tender (approximately 20 minutes)
- Drain and return pot to very low heat
- Add margarine or butter, 4 tablespoons coconut cream or low-FODMAP milk and thyme or low-FODMAP Happy Spices Italian Seasoning
- Mash with a potato masher until desired consistency
- Add additional cream/milk as needed
- Season to taste with additional salt and pepper to taste
- Serve immediately, garnished with additional thyme and vegan margarine, if desired

Such a simple thing. But I’ve been missing my mashed potatoes. I’m absolutely in love with this version although I do add extra salt. Thanks for a other great recipe Dr Rachel!
