5 Ingredient Vegan: Chewy Almond Slice

Developed for the lazy vegan; the vegan who always forgets to buy the ingredients they need; the vegan who loves eating but isn't so keen on cooking, I introduce you to my new series, 5 Ingredient Vegan Recipes.

The first of many, I'm excited to share the recipe for my Chewy Almond Slice, the easiest, chewiest and tastiest slice you'll make. It takes 40 minutes to prepare and cook, and about 10 seconds to eat. 

Send me your suggestions for what you'd like to see in this series, and keep cooking.

  • 100g aquafaba (the liquid found in tinned chickpeas)
  • 120g caster sugar
  • 30g almond meal
