Who doesn’t love a finely baked croissant no matter where it’s originated from? It’s not easy to fulfill the croissant yearning when for a vegan. The famous chef Alexis Gauthier did the magic and brought the vegan croissant recipe from plant-based Mecca Gauthier Soho.

This week CafeOn queued up this easy and quick vegan croissant recipe for you to make at home within no time. 

Ingredients

  • White flour, 500g
  • Table salt, 10g
  • Caster sugar, 50g
  • Vegan spread, 125g (or, dairy-free butter)
  • Plant-based yoghurt, 125g (soy yoghurt)
  • Plant-based milk, 125g (soy milk)
  • Fresh yeast, 25g (mixed with soy milk for 5 mins in 20ml)
  • Soy milk, 100ml
  • Maple syrup, 100ml
  • Baking parchment

Method

  • Preheat oven to 180℃.
  • Put the flour, table salt, sugar, yogurt, vegan spread, soya milk in the bowl of a stand mixer.
  • Start the mixer at speed 2 or 3, ensuring that all the ingredients get mixed nicely together.
  • After 3 minutes at speed 2 to 3, add the yeast and spin for another 3 minutes.
  • You might have to add a couple of extra spoons of white flour so that the dough gets a perfect elastic texture. Not too wet and not too dry.
  • Let the dough rest for 2 hours.
  • Pin-roll the dough to about 5mm thick.
  • Cut triangles and start rolling them into croissant shapes.
  • Brush them with the soya-maple mix and place them on a tray lined with baking parchment.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, depending on the size of the croissants. Remove when they’re golden brown.
  • Now let it sit and eat when ready!
