7 Showstopping Vegan Bakes
Delicious plant-based delicacies to enjoy in honour of the Great British Bake Off's first Vegan Week
1. Vegan Feta, Butternut Squash, Caramelised Onion and Cashew Nut Wellingtons
Crunchy filo-style pastry filled with earthy squash, sweet caramelised onions and nutty cashews. A real crowd-pleaser for special occasions.
2. Double Chocolate Doughnuts
These are great fun to make with friends if you're having a baking session. The best part is dipping them in chocolate and adding your favourite topping!
3. Mushroom and Leek Pie
Fresh veg smothered in creamy garlic sauce, served in crisp, golden pastry. This dish is particularly good with fluffy roast potatoes and a splash of vegan gravy.
4. Vegan Pavlova with Fresh Fruit
Just one example of the wonder that is aquafaba. Although this is traditionally a summer dessert (thanks to the sweet seasonal berries), it's so delicious it can be enjoyed all year round!
5. Aine Carlin's Flatbread Pizza
This cheese-less pizza is not only great for vegans, but also for those looking to cut down on dairy. You could even add some olives or pine nuts for a bit of extra bite.
6. Naughty Vegan Brownies
Who says vegan food can't be indulgent? These gorgeous brownies are oozing with gooey chocolate and just begging to be eaten.
7. The Ultimate Vegan Wedding Cake
Inspired by the Royal Wedding, this three-tiered cake features melt-in-the-mouth lemon sponge flavoured with elderflower syrup and topped with vegan buttercream icing - heaven!
