The fab team at Popcorn Kitchen has created this recipe for vegan rocky road. Why not give it a try at home?
We love rocky road, but most recipes are not vegan (and some aren’t even vegetarian!) so the lovely folks at Popcorn Kitchen have come up with their own delicious vegan rocky road recipe!
The biggest thing to look out for is the marshmallows that are normally used. Whilst it is possible to get vegan marshmallows, most supermarket brands are not vegan, and some contain gelatine which means they are not even suitable for vegetarians. To avoid having to search out vegan marshmallows, the marshmallows have been completely replaced with popcorn. This recipe uses Popcorn Kitchen’s Simply Sweet popcorn which is vegan (as are all snacking and sharing bags).
Not only is this recipe easy, it is also great because it can be changed to suit your preferences, you can decide what your preferred biscuits, dried fruits and nuts are! And of course, if you’re not vegan, you can switch it up to suit your diet.
Ingredients
50g vegan spread
175g vegan dark chocolate
3tbsp maple syrup
60g vegan biscuits, roughly broken/smashed
30g vegan popcorn (we used Popcorn Kitchen’s Simply Sweet)
50g dried fruit (we used cranberries)
50g chopped nuts (we used pecans)
Method
- In a bain marie, melt the vegan spread, the dark chocolate and the maple syrup.
- Once fully melted, fold in the biscuits, the popcorn, the dried fruit and the nuts until combined.
- Pour into a baking tin or dish lined with either cling film or baking paper and push down with the back of a spoon.
- Put in the fridge for a couple of hours until set.
- Cut up and enjoy!
