My first try at this creation turned out fantastic, I was very surprised how cheesy this tasted. It was just an experiment at scalloped potatoes but turned out awesome. Initially I added the raw onions to the potatoes without sauteing and tasted delicious, the second try I decided to saute them first and still great.

Steps

1

Preheat oven to 375. Saute the onions in olive oil for 5 minutes and during the last minute add the garlic. Cut the potatoes into small bite sized cubes and place into a large bowl. Add the onions to the potatoes and mix.
2

In a 4 cup measuring cup, add the almond milk, nutritional yeast, cornstarch and salt. Mix until particles have disolved.
3

Finely grate the vegan Parmesan cheese till you have about 1/2 cup. More is better and you can also wait to grate it when you add it to the pot directly.
4

Grease a 3 quart baking dish. Add 1/3 of the potato mixture, sprinkle with salt and pepper, add 1/3 of the cheese and slice up 1 Tbsp vegan butter on top. Repeat this process 2 more times.
5

Pour the liquid mixture onto the potatoes. If there are still some clumps in the liquid, discard them. The liquid should almost cover the top layer of potatoes.
6

Bake with a cover for 40 minutes. Remove cover and bake another 40-50 minutes. Let pot rest for 5 minutes and serve.
