Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package vegan puff pastry sheets
- 1 cup vegan cream cheese
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons almond milk
- 1 tablespoon raw sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the vegan cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
In another bowl, gently toss the raspberries with cornstarch and lemon juice to coat them and set aside.
Roll out the vegan puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 10x12 inches in size.
Cut the pastry sheet into 8 equal rectangles.
Place each rectangle onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each piece of pastry.
Top the cream cheese with a few raspberries, dividing them evenly among the Danish pastries.
Fold the edges of the pastry slightly over the filling to create a border.
Brush the edges of the pastry with almond milk using a pastry brush.
Sprinkle the raw sugar over the edges of each Danish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed up and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature for a deliciously sweet and tangy breakfast treat.
