Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet Vegan puff pastry
- 0.5 cup Apricot jam
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the vegan puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into six equal rectangles.
In a small bowl, mix the apricot jam with the cornstarch until well combined.
Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the apricot mixture in the center of each pastry rectangle.
Fold the corners of each rectangle towards the center, pinching them slightly to create an open envelope shape.
Transfer the danishes to the prepared baking sheet.
In another small bowl, stir together almond milk and maple syrup. Brush this mixture over the edges of each pastry.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden and puffed.
While the danishes bake, prepare the icing by mixing the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and just enough almond milk to achieve a drizzle consistency.
Once baked, remove the danishes from the oven and let them cool slightly on a rack.
Drizzle the icing over the danishes and sprinkle with sliced almonds before serving.
