Equipment

  • 1 Baking tray
  • baking paper
  • 2 Piping bags
  • 1 narrow piping nozzle

Ingredients

  • 235 g soya milk
  • 85 g vegan butter cut into small cubes
  • 10 g caster sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 130 g plain flour sifted
  • 250 g Crack'd or other liquid vegan egg replacer
  • 250 ml whippable vegan cream
  • 4 tbsp icing sugar

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 200C / 400F / gas mark 6 and cover a large baking tray with baking paper.
  • In a large saucepan add the soya milk, vegan butter, sugar and salt.
  • Place over a medium-high heat and cook until the butter has melted and it has come to a boil
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and add the flour. Beat the flour until the liquid until no lumps remain.
  • Return the saucepan to medium-high heat and cook, and continue to beat frequently until the dough is pulling together into one dough ball.
  • Take the saucepan back off of the heat and let the dough cool until just warm.
  • Add roughly 50g of the egg replacer and beat well into the dough ball.
  • Repeat until the egg replacer is fully incorporated and a shiny paste has formed.
  • Fill a large piping bag with the choux pastry and cut off the tip.
  • Pipe mounds of the choux pastry onto the baking sheet. Use a wet finger to press down any pointy bits that might catch in the oven.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until puffed up and golden.
  • Remove the profiteroles from the oven and poke a small hole in the base of each one so they don’t collapse then leave them to cool on a wire rack.
  • Once completely cool, whip up the vegan cream and icing sugar until thick and holding its shape.
  • Using a narrow piping nozzle, fill the piping bag with cream and pipe into the hole at the base of the profiteroles.
  • Once filled, serve with chocolate sauce or your favourite berry compote.

Notes

You can use the vegan choux pastry immediately, or leave it at room temperature for up to 2 hours (it's important to not let a film form so do cover with cling film pressing it directly against the surface or spooning into a piping bag ready.
