Morrisons has introduced a vegan version of a Cornish pasty as part of a new plant-based range on its Pie Shop counters.

The Corn-ish Vegan Pasty is now a feature at the UK supermarket, and is packed with vegan mince to mimic a traditional pasty. 

The filling is made from seasoned potato, swede and onion inside flaky plant-based puff pastry.

The pasty cost £1.75 or can be bought on an offer of two for £3. The Pie Shop counter also serves Vegan Sausage Rolls for £1 each or two for £1.50.

Morrisons Pasty Buyer, Steve Halford told Vegan Food & Living: “Some of our customers want to cut down on their red meat intake, so we wanted to offer a pasty that’s meat-free and as delicious as the original.”
