It’s no secret that I love carbs! Vegan Peach Thyme Scones, Vegan Brown Butter Pasta, and my personal favorite Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies, oh and how could I forget potatoes. Potatoes are so versatile and I haven’t met a kind I don’t like yet. But, these vegan Hasselback potatoes are definitely up there towards the top of the best vegan potato recipes.
It takes a lot to make it to the top of my list, a recipe needs to be easy and inexpensive, dairy-free, full of flavor, and pretty because well, pretty food tastes better. This vegan potato dish doesn’t disappoint!
Ingredients
To check all the boxes, this recipe must be easy and inexpensive to make. This means that you probably have all of the ingredients already and the recipe itself is almost silly it’s so straightforward. But, that doesn’t mean you won’t be drooling over this dish. Oh, no it’s awesome! So, let’s make it!
- Yukon Gold Potatoes
- Olive Oil
- Vegan Butter
- Fresh Rosemary & Thyme- Fresh is better but dried is ok. See recipe notes for additional information.
- Garlic
- Salt & Pepper
- Hippeas White Cheddar Vegan Puffs or Cracker of Choice- This will be crunched up and sprinkled on top of the potatoes for a crispy finishing touch.
Tips & Tricks for Perfect Hasselback Potatoes
You’re only as good as your tools – The best tip I can give you is get a good quality, sharp knife! I use this one because it works well and isn’t too pricey! This seems like a no-brainer but it’s really a game-changer and is especially helpful when slicing Hasselback potatoes because you want your slices to be close together but, not go all the way through the potato.
Slice thinly- Try to fit in at least 10 slices on a medium potato. But the more slices you make the thinner they will be and the crispier the texture will be after baking.
Fresh herbs are best- Fresh herbs have more flavor but you can use dried herbs if that is all you have.
Healthy fats are good- this vegan potato recipe tastes even better with a healthy serving of oil. I choose to use olive oil but you can use your favorite heart-healthy oil like avocado oil too. Just note that if you use a strongly flavored oil like sesame or coconut, it will change the flavor of the dish!
