1. Prepare the yeast dough:
Gently warm the plant milk (lukewarm, not hot!). Stir in the yeast, sugar, and vanilla sugar and let it sit briefly. Place the flour and salt in a large bowl, then add the yeast mixture and the softened vegan margarine.
2. Knead the dough:
Knead for at least 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
3. Let it rise:
Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
4. Braid the dough:
Briefly knead again and divide into three equal strands. Roll into 35–40 cm ropes and braid them carefully.
5. Bake:
Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Optionally brush with plant milk.
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for about 30 minutes until golden brown. Let cool completely.
