Vegan puff pastry trees (Printable Version)

Flaky vegan puff pastry folded into festive tree shapes with spiced Biscoff spread and a sweet sugar glaze.

# What You'll Need:

→ Pastry

01 - 2 sheets vegan puff pastry, thawed

→ Spread and Seasoning

02 - 4 heaping tablespoons Biscoff spread (smooth or crunchy)
03 - 3 teaspoons ground ginger
04 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

→ Glazing and Decoration

05 - Dairy-free milk, for glazing
06 - Icing sugar, for dusting

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) on fan setting and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
02 - Place both thawed puff pastry sheets on greaseproof paper and gently roll to smooth out creases.
03 - Evenly spread the Biscoff spread over one puff pastry sheet, covering all edges completely.
04 - Sprinkle ground ginger evenly over the Biscoff spread layer.
05 - Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the layered pastry into strips approximately 1 inch wide.
06 - Fold each strip in a zigzag manner to form a tree shape. Optionally, insert a cake pop stick for support. Use leftover pastry to cut star shapes and place atop each tree.
07 - Arrange the shaped pastries on the prepared tray spaced apart. Brush with dairy-free milk and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
08 - Bake centrally in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
09 - Remove from the oven and cool slightly. Dust with icing sugar immediately before serving.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Ensure puff pastry sheets are fully thawed to prevent cracking when rolling.
