Savory Sunchoke Mash
This Savory Sunchoke Mash is creamy, earthy, and oh-so-satisfying! I love how it brings out the nutty flavors of sunchokes, making it a comforting dish that feels special.

I first discovered sunchokes at a local farmer's market, and I was instantly smitten.
These knobby little tubers have a wonderful nutty flavor that makes them perfect for mashing.
I love serving this mash as a side dish with my favorite lentil loaf or just enjoying it on its own with a drizzle of olive oil and some fresh herbs.
It’s a warming dish that feels like a hug on a plate!

Ingredients & Substitutions
Sunchokes, also known as Jerusalem artichokes, have a lovely nutty flavor and are packed with nutrients. If you can't find sunchokes, you can substitute them with more potatoes, but you'll miss that unique taste! I often use unsweetened almond oat milk for a creamier texture, but feel free to experiment with your favorite plant-based oat milk.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to add a squeeze of lemon juice just before serving for a bright finish.
- •If you want a bit of a kick, throw in some red pepper flakes when you’re mashing!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I mix in a tablespoon of nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.
- •You can also add in sautéed mushrooms for an earthy twist.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Just reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a little extra plant-based oat milk if needed to bring back the creaminess.
