Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Frozen puff pastry sheets
- 150 grams Dark chocolate
- 120 grams Almond butter
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 50 grams Chopped almonds
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Thaw the frozen puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions. Once thawed, gently roll them out on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the dark chocolate. Stir occasionally until it's completely smooth.
In a small bowl, combine the melted chocolate, almond butter, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and evenly mixed.
Spread half of the chocolate-almond mixture over one puff pastry sheet, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle half of the chopped almonds over the chocolate mixture.
Carefully roll the puff pastry sheet into a tight log starting from the end opposite the clean edge. Seal the edge by pressing gently.
Repeat the process with the second puff pastry sheet and remaining chocolate-almond mixture and chopped almonds.
Place both pastry logs on the prepared baking tray. Using a sharp knife, cut diagonal slashes across the top of each log around 1-inch apart to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is puffed up and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Once slightly cooled, sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your vegan almond chocolate pastries!
