Vegan Potato Cheese Pockets

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mashed potatoes
  • 1 heaped tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons vegan mayo
  • 2-4 tablespoons flour (GF if needed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon vegan butter or oil
  • 1/4 cup shredded vegan cheese
  • Breadcrumbs or Panko (GF if needed)

Spices

  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.

  2. Whisk the potato mash along with all the ingredients except the last two.

  3. Slowly add flour until the batter is firm enough to roll yet not too dry.

  4. Roll into 8 even balls, create a well in the middle by pressing into the ball with your thumb.

  5. Fill with cheese and cover by folding the edges.

  6. Roll into a ball again and repeat for the remaining balls, brush with olive oil, and roll into panko.

  7. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until crispy.

  8. Allow to cool for a few minutes to firm up.

  9. Eat warm; if desired, pan fry afterwards for extra crispiness.
