‘Our new avoca-dough buns are the perfect BBQ accompaniment and complement our amazing Plant Kitchen selection beautifully’

M&S is rapidly expanding its Plant kitchen range. After its recent vegan ice-cream addition to the line -up, the high street retailer just launched a new vegan brioche burger and hot dog buns – made from avocados.

The buns, which have a slight green hue retail at £1.15 for a pack of two are made by swapping eggs with avocados while coconut oil enriches the buns for that classic brioche texture. Both buns also pack in natural sources of vitamin D and fibre.

According to the upmarket grocer, the ‘avocadough’ buns are the perfect partner to the brand’s Plant Kitchen BBQ food choices including Plant Kitchen Chorizo Puppies and Plant Kitchen No Beef Burgers.

Sharing the news on Instagram, the brand wrote: “Introducing the AVOCA-DOUGH Buns!

“In a high-street first, we’ve launched these EPIC vegan-friendly avocado burger and hot dog buns.

“Pureed avocado replaces egg and gives the buns a slight green hue, whilst coconut oil enriches the buns for that classic brioche texture ?”
