Almond Vegan King Cake – chestnuts

La voici, la voilà la galette des rois version 2021 ! Une galette des rois vegan amandes châtaignes bien gourmande, qui change de la traditionnelle crème d’amande or frangipane. Monsieur est un grand fan de galette, mais en version classique, alors je bataille toujours un peu pour les « pimper », mais à chaque fois il adore, comme quoi ! Cette année j’ai eu envie d’y mettre des châtaignes, on en avait pas mal ramassées cet automne alors c’était la bonne excuse pour les sortir du congèl’. Le résultat est parfait, The chestnut puree adds an incredible texture and taste and goes perfectly with the almond. For gluttony, I added a few broken chestnuts, But if you don't have them on hand it doesn't matter, It was just the little touch more.
This vegan kings galette has nothing to envy to a traditional pancake,
She doesn't have to be ashamed to be 100% vegetable ! And then clearly the galette des rois without butter is clearly more digestible, so why deprive yourself of it ?! This year I even pushed the vice to make my homemade puff pastry, I promise I put the recipe quickly so that you can shine in society (Or just facing your cat it will be enough )!
