Vegan wagon wheels recipe

Vegan, gluten-free, wheat-free, quick & easy.

As seen on The Great British Bake Off this week… I bring to you my own vegan wagon wheels which are gluten-free too, with homemade cookies, vegan marshmallows, dairy-free chocolate, strawberry jam, and coconut for a unique twist.

These wagon wheels are super quick & easy to make, perfect with a coffee/tea for an afternoon sweet treat.

Preparation- 10 minutes

Baking time- 9-10 minutes

Makes- 6

Level- Easy

Ingredients for the cookies

-200g of plain flour (I use gluten-free)

-100g of coconut oil (melted)

-5 tablespoons of maple syrup

+

-Vegan marshmallows

-Strawberry Jam

-Dairy-free dark chocolate

-Desiccated coconut (optional)

…

To make the cookies

Step 1- Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees c and line a baking tray with grease proof paper.

Step 2- In a mixing bowl, combine the plain flour, melted coconut oil and maple syrup.

 Bring together with your hands until a dough forms.

Add more flour if too wet or coconut oil if too dry. You want it to be a smooth dough.

Step 3- Roll out the dough until 1/4 inch thick, then using a round cookie cutter, cut out circles and place onto the lined tray.

Step 4- Pop the cookies into the oven and bake for 9-10 minutes until golden in colour.

Step 5- Once baked, carefully place them onto a cooling rack and allow them to cool fully.

Assemble the wagon wheel

Step 1- Spread some strawberry jam over half of the biscuits.

Step 2- With the remaining biscuits, place a marshmallow on top and pop into the oven to melt the marshmallow.

This will take around 2 minutes.

Step 4- Sandwich a jam cookie and melted marshmallow cookie together and set aside.

Step 5- Using a bain-marie, melt some dairy-free dark chocolate and dunk the wagon wheels to coat.

Place onto a baking tray/grease proof paper and pop into the fridge to set.

This will take around 10 minutes.I decorated with some desiccated coconut (optional)

Store in a sealed container in the fridge and best eaten within a few days!
