Hot cross buns are a classic go-to at Easter but if you feel like a better and more healthier option, try our vegan Choc Chip Hot Cross Bun cookies. A delicious alternative that’s vegan and refined sugar-free, you could also make it gluten-free by swapping spelt flour (which we used in this recipe) for a gluten-free flour of your choice.
For the icing, you’ll need a piping bag but if you don’t have one, improvise by getting a sandwich bag and cutting a teeny tiny hole in the corner.
Yummy on its own, these cookies also pair perfectly with a glass of plant-based milk, using any of our Mylk Bases. If we had to choose, definitely our Choc Mylk Base!
