Vegan puff pastry is a plant-based version of the classic pastry dough known for its flaky and buttery texture. It is made without any animal-derived ingredients, such as butter or eggs, and instead utilizes plant-based fats like vegetable shortening or margarine. Vegan puff pastry follows a similar preparation process as traditional puff pastry, where layers of dough and fat are folded and rolled repeatedly to create the characteristic flaky layers. It can be used in a variety of sweet and savory recipes, including pastries, pies, tarts, and turnovers.
