I’m creating this post for all of my fellow lazy bakers! I do love baking and putting love and time into my desserts but there are days when I just want something sweet without having to put a load of effort in. I’m sure many of you can relate! I’ve made this list of 20 lazy vegan desserts so you can satisfy your sweet tooth in a hurry. I hope you enjoy!
The best lazy vegan dessert recipes
All of the desserts below either have minimal ingredients, require no baking, or can be made in less than 5 minutes. Some are a combination of all three!
5 minute lazy desserts
These desserts can all be made in 5 minutes or less. They also make very minimal mess so they’re perfect for a last minute dessert.
Vanilla Mug Cake
A light, fluffy vanilla mug cake with vegan sprinkles throughout. The most classic kind of mug cake that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
If you want something a little fancier than vanilla, try this red velvet mug cake instead. Super easy to make in the microwave and there's no mess left behind.
This is one of my favourite lazy vegan desserts and I make it quite often! It's rich and chocolatey with a brownie texture. I serve it warm with some vegan ice cream and it hits the spot every time!
All you need to do to make this delicious milkshake is pop some Oreos, soy milk, dairy-free ice cream and cocoa powder into a blender. Top it with dairy-free squirty cream for an extra special touch.
Here are 10 no-bake desserts that can be made with very little effort. The rocky road is my absolute favourite and I highly recommend that you try it!
Peanut Butter Fudge
Smooth, melt-in-your-mouth peanut butter fudge topped with chopped peanuts and dark chocolate. You don't need condensed milk for this recipe and you certainly don't need a thermometer of any kind!
Melt Biscoff spread and dairy-free white chocolate together then pop it in the fridge to make a beautifully creamy Biscoff fudge. That's right- only 2 ingredients!
There is quite a bit of waiting time for this one but the fridge will do most of the work for you! It takes just 20 minutes to prepare and uses simple ingredients- no cashews needed!
All you need to make these Oreo truffles is some vegan cream cheese and Oreo biscuits crushed into crumbs. Enjoy them with or without a chocolate coating.
A chocolatey treat filled with marshmallows Digestive biscuit pieces and whatever other mix-ins your heart desires. Mix everything together then pop it in the fridge to set.
If you've never heard of chocolate tiffin, it's a Scottish fridge cake that's quite similar to rocky road. Instead of marshmallows, it uses raisins or other dried fruits.
These are the last 4 recipes that didn’t quite fit into either of the other two categories!
Flapjacks
Gooey, chewy British flapjacks made with oats, golden syrup, brown sugar and vegan margarine. Mix the ingredients together, pop them in the oven and enjoy!
This recipe uses ready-made puff pastry but if you want to save even more time, you can use canned apple pie filling too! Can be enjoyed with or without the icing glaze.
Fondue is not just for Valentine's Day- you can whip this up any time you like! Pair it with fresh fruit or vegan marshmallows for an indulgent treat that will satisfy your soul!
If you use ready-made shortcrust pastry, this can be a super quick and easy 2-ingredient dessert. Just fill the shortcrust cases with your favourite jam, bake and enjoy!
