Ingredients

• Russet potatoes - 400 grams
• Garlic - 5 cloves
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Almond milk - 100 milliliters
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Wrap the garlic cloves in aluminum foil and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until soft and caramelized.

5. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the almond milk to the pot. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with more almond milk if desired.
6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
