He pandoro vegan is the reinterpretation, in a vegan key, of the famous Veronese sourdough product that is inevitable during the holiday season, in all the houses, as well as panettone, nougat and other typical delicacies of the time. A sweet designed for those who follow a diet without ingredients of animal origin and therefore without milk, butter or eggs, which will conquer everyone for a flavor and consistency faithful to the original.
To prepare it in an artisanal way, it will first be necessary to respect the lengths rising time of the classic recipe and then obtain the characteristic eight-pointed star mold, with a capacity of approximately 750 g.
We started from the preparation of the Yeast, a pre-dough that will have to rest for about 1 hour, obtained by mixing flour, sugar, soy drink (instead of milk) and crumbled brewer’s yeast. So we made a double doughnecessary to guarantee a satisfactory honeycomb structure and final yield and, finally, we took care of the Browse: a technique which consists of folding the dough over on itself several times, as is done for puff pastry, coating it with fat (in this case margarine instead of butter).
You will thus obtain a high and soft dessert, with the inimitable flavor of vanilla, to be sprinkled with icing sugar and soaked in breakfast in a cup of latte or enjoyed in slices at the end of the meal in the company of friends, vegans and non-vegans alike.
For best results, we suggest that you cover the pandoro, after the first twenty minutes of cooking, with a aluminum foil: in this way the base will not darken and success at the table will be assured.
