This simple, savory dish is ready in 30 minutes or less, making it an easy yet flavorful addition to your Thanksgiving, Oktoberfest, or St. Patrick’s Day menu.

Ingredients for Whole Grain Mustard Mashed Potatoes

You will need the following:

  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup oat milk
  • 1/4 cup whole grain Dijon mustard
  • salt and pepper

How to Make Whole Grain Mustard Mashed Potatoes

STEP ONE: Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover by about 1 inch.

STEP TWO: Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and cook until fork-tender, about 12–15 minutes. Drain and return the potatoes to the pot.

STEP THREE: Add butter, oat milk, mustard, salt, and pepper, and mash to your desired consistency. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.

FAQ

  • Can I use a different type of potato? Yes, but Yukon Gold potatoes are ideal for their creamy texture. Russet potatoes or red potatoes can also work, though they may have a slightly different texture.
  • What’s the best substitute for oat milk? Unsweetened almond milk or soy milk work well as non-dairy substitutes.
  • Can I make this ahead of time? Yes, you can prepare the mashed potatoes in advance. Store them in an airtight container and reheat with a bit of added milk or butter to restore creaminess.
  • How much mustard should I add for a stronger flavor? For a bolder mustard taste, start with an extra teaspoon and adjust from there, tasting as you go.
  • Can I use smooth Dijon mustard instead of whole grain? Absolutely! Smooth Dijon will still add that tangy kick, though whole-grain gives a bit of extra texture.

    What a genius idea to add mustard to mashed potatoes! I get bored of gravy. I made this to pair with your twice baked BBQ tofu bites like you suggested. I left out the butter and added a little more milk. So good!
