Here are the 5 best vegan Christmas cookbooks (2024)

I love Christmas. Well, I love all the food and drink that you consume at Christmas. Not so much the gift buying and the overdone Christmas events that you have to attend. For me, Christmas is the season of comfort foods, mince pies, roast dinners, and mulled wine.

But here’s the thing: Christmas often leans heavily on meaty traditions, from pigs in blankets to beef wellington. However, being vegan doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the festive feasting. Thanks to vegan Christmas cookbooks, I’ve consistently had something delicious to serve my family.

In this blog, I’m going to share my 5 favourite vegan Christmas cookbooks of 2023. Whether you’re aiming for a full-fledged Christmas day feast or seeking inspiration for vegan Christmas party delights, these cookbooks have you covered.
