Vegan Crumble Buns with Redcurrants
In my imagination, crumble buns are a typical pastry, which you only get at the bakery around the corner. Simply, an industrial product! I hardly know anyone who regularly bakes there own crumble buns. So it's time to make crumble buns as popular as cheesecake, right!? So in the future, you don't think about the industrial product but about soft, homemade, and freshly baked buns from your oven.
The feedback from our friends, who tasted the vegan crumble buns was super positive! Many of them only remembered crumble buns as hard and expensive pastries from the bakery. We could show them that they can also be soft and fluffy – even without any eggs!
