Baked Mashed Potato Balls [Vegan]

Ingredients

• 6 large russet potatoes-mashed
• 1/2 cup vegan mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2 cloves garlic - minced
• 3 tablespoons vegan butter
• 1/4 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
2. Peel the potatoes then cut in half. Place them into a large pot, then cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, and cook until the potatoes can easily be pierced with a knife, about 20 minutes.
3. In a medium bowl, mash the potatoes, vegan butter, cashew milk, and garlic together. Place in fridge to cool, about 30 minutes.
4. In a small bowl, mix together the panko crumbs, nutritional yeast, and cayenne pepper.
5. Next, use a spoon to scoop out a golf ball-sized amount of mashed potatoes. Press one cube of cheese into the middle, then close the mashed potato around the cheese. Now, roll into a ball, then repeat for the remaining mashed potatoes and cheese.
6. Then, roll the mashed potato balls in the panko crumbs mixture.
7. Finally, place the coated mashed potato balls onto a lined/greased baking sheet or casserole dish.
8. Cook for 40 minutes or until the outside gets browned and crispy.
