Upgrade Your Vegan Brunch Sandwich with Shitake Bacon
Yes, you heard that right! If you’re looking for a vegan brunch recipe that’s next level, try this Vegan Shitake Bacon, Cheese & Tomato Croissant Sandwich.
The earthy and smoky flavour from the mushrooms, which when cooked tastes rich and meaty-yet-buttery in texture, pair perfectly with fresh tomato, a slice of creamy plant-based cheese melted on top all inside our light and flaky St Pierre Croissants.

Indulge with Vegan Pains Au Chocolat, Berries & Cream
For a little more indulgence with very little effort involved, try this sweet vegan brunch option with our Pains Au Chocolat.
Juicy and tart berries – we’ve opted for raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries – served alongside a simple vegan-friendly, Chantilly-style cream and fresh mint leaves. Who said mornings couldn’t be simple yet extravagant?

Try Out Vegan Sweet & Savoury Fillings
The beauty of using our St Pierre Croissants for vegan meals is that you can easily mix things up with your favourite vegan sweet and savoury fillings.
Vegan Brunch Top Tip
Make a vegan Chantilly-style cream by whipping plant-based double cream with half a teaspoon of vanilla extract and two tablespoons of icing sugar. An easy way to add an extra touch of elegance to your vegan breakfast or brunch dishes.
Here, we’ve gone all out sweet with two options: a chocolate, nut butter & banana-filled croissant, and a croissant filled with coconut yoghurt and topped with a layer of blueberry compote.
On this second platter idea, we’ve opted for a nice vegan gingerbread buttercream and strawberries. A must have for spring season as this sweet combination works so well for brunch or even as a dessert. Usually this is the type of recipe you can batch cook and make for the whole family which is super convenient. So easy to make!

Vegan Top Tip
As gingerbread is usually pretty much Christmassy, the buttercream can be used to frost anything! From gingerbread houses, layered spice cake, cupcakes or even cookies, it’s incredible paired with moist and chewy type cakes.
For a savoury option, why not try out some of these ideas:
- Vegan bacon, lettuce, avocado & tomato: create a vegan breakfast sandwich using our croissants
- Mushroom, spinach & avocado: sliced mushrooms fried with garlic, onion and herbs added to our croissants, and then topped with wilted spinach and slices of creamy avocado
- Vegan sausage & cheese: create an easy vegan brunch croissant filled with classic breakfast flavours, and top with your favourite sauces
