Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Roasted garlic adds sweet flavor to these tasty mashed potatoes that are quick and easy with the Stand Mixer.

Ingredients

    • 6-7 garlic cloves
    • 1 tsp (5 mL) olive oil
    • 3 lb. (1.4 kg) Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into ¾”-1” (2-2 ½ cm) pieces
    • 2 tsp (10 mL) chopped fresh thyme, plus more for garnish (optional)
    • 1 stick (½ cup/ 125 mL) butter, cut into pieces
    • 2 tsp (10 mL) salt
    • 1 tsp (5 mL) pepper
    • ¼ cup (60 mL) heavy whipping cream

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a small sheet pan with foil and place the garlic cloves in the middle of the pan. Drizzle the oil over the garlic. Bring the corners of the foil together to form a “purse” and seal. Roast for 20 minutes. Set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, add your potatoes to large stock pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until fork tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  3. Add all of the ingredients to the Deluxe Stand Mixer. Select BEAT and adjust the time to 1 minute. Press START.
  4. Serve with extra thyme, if you’d like.
