Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb ready-made puff pastry
1 tablespoon vegan butter
3 cups leek, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tablespoon fresh sage
¼ cup dried cranberries
½ cup dairy-free cream cheese
½ lb vegan chorizo
1 tablespoon oat milk
1 teaspoon poppy seeds

Steps:

  • To make the filling, melt the butter in a pan, when foaming add the leek and saute for 8-10 minutes until they're creamy, soft and caramelised. Season with salt & pepper.
  • Add garlic & fresh sage, dried cranberries, cream cheese and vegan chorizo. Cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
  • Roll out your pastry to 5mm thick. Cut out a Christmas tree shape.
  • Put your filling down the middle, a narrow dollop at the top and getting a little wider as you add filling to the bottom of your pastry.
  • Cut 1 inch slits down the left and right sides of your pastry alongside the filling and brush with oat milk.
  • Fold the pastry into the middle over the filling, brush top with oat milk and sprinkle with poppy seeds.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 200C fan for 30 minutes until your tree has puffed up and is golden brown.
  • Serve with delicious hasselback potatoes and roast sprouts!
  • Enjoy!
