Ingredients
- 1.5lbs of baby potatoes
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
1 cup vegan sour cream (recipe here)
-
½ cup coconut bacon (recipe here)
-
1/3 cup chopped scallions or chives
Instructions
- In a large pot, cover potatoes with water and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork (16-18 minutes).
-
Use a colander to drain well. Place potatoes back into the pot and pour in 2 tbsp olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat. Line one or two baking sheets (depending on how big your sheets are) with parchment paper. Pour potatoes onto the baking sheets. Allow potatoes to cool enough to handle.
-
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450F or heat your air fryer.
-
Gently smash potato using a potato masher, fork, back of a spoon or my favorite way-the bottom of a drinking glass.
-
Place in oven or air fryer. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until potatoes are crispy and browned. Check the cooking halfway through cooking and rotate your pan if needed.
-
Remove from oven and plate your potatoes. Top with 4 or 5 dollops of vegan sour cream a sprinkle of coconut bacon and green onions or chives.
