Perfect for those craving comfort food without compromise, this deliciously dairy-free creation is sure to please vegans and non-vegans alike!
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded vegan cheese, nutritional yeast, Dijon mustard, almond milk, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined, forming a smooth cheese filling.
Unroll the vegan puff pastry sheets. If they are frozen, ensure they are fully thawed. Cut each sheet into four equal rectangles, resulting in eight pieces total.
Spoon approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the cheese filling onto half of each pastry rectangle, leaving a small border around the edges.
Fold the other half of the pastry over the filling, creating a pocket. Use a fork to crimp the edges shut, ensuring the filling is securely sealed inside.
Lightly brush the tops of each kaasbroodje with olive oil, then sprinkle sesame seeds over each one for added flavor and texture.
Place the kaasbroodjes on the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each pastry.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are puffed up and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as a delightful vegan snack or appetizer, perfect for sharing with friends and family.
