I like galette, do you know how?
Well, without butter! Dreaming of a king cake that's both delicious and vegan? We have the perfect recipe for you, enough to pull the Kings and Queens, without breaking any eggs!
The ingredients:
Before you start preparing, you will need:
-
2 vegan puff pastries
-
250 g of ground almonds
-
150 g of sugar
-
3 tbsp neutral oil
-
40 g of cornstarch
-
20 cl of almond or soy vegetable cream
-
1 tsp bitter almond extract
-
1 bean
The steps:
Step 1: Preparing the frangipane
In a bowl, combine the ground almonds, sugar, oil, cornstarch, vegetable cream, and bitter almond extract. Mix until smooth.
Step 2: Assembling the cake
Spread one of the two puff pastry sheets on a baking sheet and prick the bottom with a fork. Spread the frangipane in the center of the pastry, leaving one edge free. Place the bean carefully, then cover with a second layer of pastry. To seal the edges, and prevent them from peeling, brush the edges of the pastry with a little water and a pastry brush, then seal them with your fingers or a fork (as for ravioli). Feel free to delicately draw patterns on the top with the tip of a knife.
Step 3: Golden cooking
Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 30 minutes until it is nicely golden.
Step 4: Tasting
Let your galette cool slightly before cutting and enjoying. Each bite should be an explosion of (vegan!) flavor.
