Ingredients

• 1 sheet Frozen vegan puff pastry
• 2 cups Fresh strawberries
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 3 ounces Vegan cream cheese
• 0.5 cup Coconut cream
• 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Plant-based milk

Directions

Step 1

Thaw the frozen vegan puff pastry sheet according to the package instructions.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the puff pastry to smooth out any creases, then cut it into 6 equal rectangles.

Step 4

Transfer the rectangles to the prepared baking sheet. Score a 1/2-inch border around the edges of each rectangle using a knife (without cutting all the way through). Prick the center of each rectangle with a fork to prevent puffing.

Step 5

Brush the borders with plant-based milk. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden and puffed. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Step 6

While the pastry cools, hull and dice 1 cup of strawberries. Toss them with granulated sugar in a bowl and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 7

In a mixing bowl, beat vegan cream cheese, coconut cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Once the pastry is completely cool, gently press down the centers of the rectangles to create shallow wells.

Step 9

Spread a generous layer of the strawberry cream mixture into the center of each pastry.

Step 10

Top the cream layer with the sugared strawberries. Slice the remaining 1 cup of strawberries and arrange them on top for decoration.

Step 11

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
