Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the potato chunks in a large pot, cover with cold salted water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until the potatoes are completely tender and a fork slides through without resistance, about 15–18 minutes. Drain well.

Return the drained potatoes to the pot and mash with the vegan butter and warmed plant-based milk until smooth and creamy. Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Set aside.
