Roasted Garlic Smashed Potatoes with Apple Cider Gravy

For the potatoes:
Place potatoes in a large pot and fill with water. Place pot on stove. Bring to a boil and cook potatoes until they pierce easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.

Drain water completely off of the potatoes and start to smash with a potato masher. Mash in the milk, butter, salt, garlic, sour cream, and cheese. Continue mashing until they reach the consistency desired.

For the gravy:
In a medium-sized sauce pan, melt the butter, stir in flour, and let cook for 1 minute. Add in broth and cider, stirring constantly until it starts to thicken. Continue stirring and add in milk, salt and pepper and let simmer until it reaches your desired thickness. Stir in mashed roasted garlic if desired.
