Healthy vegan scalloped potatoes

Who would have thought that healthy vegan scalloped potatoes would become one of our all-time favourite (and most requested) recipes? This healthier version of scalloped potatoes are low in fat, completely dairy-free and get the vegan tick of approval!

For this veganized version of scalloped potatoes, I made a classic roux-based sauce that contains garlic, unsweetened non-dairy milk (I used almond), vegetable broth, nutritional yeast and white wine vinegar! There is nothing complicated about the ingredients here, most (if not all) will be in your cupboard already! It is so simple, creamy, and rich.
