Ingredients
  

4 large Yukon gold potatoes, thinly sliced

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)

1 cup cauliflower, blended until smooth

4 cloves of garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon rosemary, chopped

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/4 cup nutritional yeast (for a cheesy flavor)

1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickness)

Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Sauce: In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

      Mix Base Ingredients: In a blender, combine the almond milk, cauliflower puree, sautéed garlic, thyme, rosemary, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.

        Thicken (if necessary): If you prefer a thicker sauce, dissolve cornstarch in a tablespoon of water and stir it into the blended mixture and heat it on the stove until it thickens slightly.

          Layer the Potatoes: In a greased baking dish, layer half of the thinly sliced potatoes. Pour half of the sauce over the potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated. Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes and sauce.

            Bake the Gratin: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

              Cool and Serve: Let the gratin sit for about 10 minutes before serving to allow it to set. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh touch.
