These easy vegan croissants (Rainbow Nourishments) are so easy to make. With a slight caveat. As to avoid palm oil, you’ll have to make your own puff pastry. But it’s easy, just follow the simple recipe at Doves Farm (using Flora vegan butter), and freeze any leftovers for next time.
Before baking, read up on food safety for people and pets. Keep fresh dough away from children and pets.
This recipe uses homemade or store-bought jam that you thicken on the stove. The ‘eggwash’ is replaced by a mix of plantmilk and maple syrup, and if you don’t have a sweet tooth, you can replace the jam filling with a mix of vegan cheese and pesto.
People associate croissants with France, but it’s likely that they were invented there. There is a legend that a Turkish baker created them, in a crescent-shape (to mirror the moon on the national flag), to celebrate the defeat of the Ottoman Empire.
