Vegan Bacon and Cheese Turnover

Vegan ‘Bacon’ and ‘Cheese’ Turnovers

Craving a delicious cheesy melting pastry treat? Then these moreish, tasty snacks are for you! Super easy to make and ready in just 20 mins. All you need is some ready rolled puff pastry (check it’s vegan) and your favourite vegan ‘bacon’ and ‘cheese’ and you are good to go! If you are feeling adventurous, you can whip up a batch of our homemade seitan ‘bacon’ to use in this recipe (soooo goood).

We have been trying out the new ‘Crack’d’ egg replacer in a few recipes (you can get it in the chilled aisle in Morrison’s and online). Unlike most egg replacers, it is in liquid form, rather like beaten eggs. It works really well as a ‘eggwash’ for pastry, giving them a lovely golden colour. If you can’t find it though, a little plant based milk works just as well.

Perfect for weekend breakfasts, parties or special occasions, they will keep in an airtight container for 2-3 days (if you can resist them that long…).
