Vegan treats can be just as festive and delicious as traditional ones! Here are six vegan Christmas treats you might enjoy making at home:
Use plant-based butter and replace eggs with flax eggs for a classic gingerbread cookie. Decorate them with vegan icing or try a simple glaze made with powdered sugar and non-dairy milk.
Melt vegan chocolate and spread it on a lined baking sheet. Top with crushed candy canes or peppermint candies. Let it cool and break it into festive, minty pieces.
Make a creamy and rich vegan eggnog using coconut or almond milk, sweetened with maple syrup or agave. Add a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon for that classic eggnog flavour.
Create decadent chocolate truffles by mixing melted vegan chocolate with coconut milk and a touch of vanilla extract. Roll them in cocoa powder, chopped nuts, or shredded coconut for a delightful finish.
Make a vegan-friendly pecan pie filling using ingredients like maple syrup and coconut oil. Pour them over a crust made from dates and nuts to create delicious pecan pie bars.
These powdered sugar-coated cookies, also known as Russian Tea Cakes or Mexican Wedding Cookies, can easily be made vegan by using plant-based butter and replacing dairy with non-dairy alternatives.
