Vegan & Gluten-Free Galette des Rois
A lighter, modern take on the classic French galette. It's still festive and symbolic, but designed to make you feel guilt-free about eating it 😊
This recipe is vegan, gluten-free, oil-free, and made without sugar.
Instead, it uses erythritol and a soft almond-tofu frangipane.
And the best part?
You choose the fèves.
