"When I searched for a vegan knafeh, I had a hard time, a lot of weird ingredients, or too much work. So I came up with a recipe that I really liked, it has some work to do, but certainly a good one. I really hope you enjoy it as much as I do, and feel free to make small changes to make it more yours!"
