Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour Provides structure; measure accurately for the best results.

  • 1 tablespoon White Granulated Sugar Adds a hint of sweetness; optional if you prefer less sweet biscuits.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances flavor and balance; don’t skip this essential ingredient.
  • 1/2 cup Vegan Butter Contributes moisture and flakiness; must be cold and cubed for best texture.
  • 3/4 cup Vegan Buttermilk Creates tenderness; mix lemon juice with soy milk and keep cold until ready to use.
For the Finish
  • 1 tablespoon Soy Milk Used for brushing on top before baking; other non-dairy milks can work as well.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Vegan Buttermilk Biscuits
  1. Preheat your oven to 430°F (220°C) while you line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of baking powder, 1 tablespoon of white granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Add 1/2 cup of cold, cubed vegan butter to the flour mixture and work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Slowly pour in 3/4 cup of cold vegan buttermilk, mixing gently until a shaggy dough forms.
  5. Transfer the dough onto a floured surface, gently flattening it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
  6. Using a floured biscuit cutter, cut out rounds from the dough without twisting the cutter.
  7. Brush the tops of the biscuits with soy milk for a beautiful golden finish. Slide the tray into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown on top.
  8. Once out of the oven, you may choose to brush the tops with melted vegan butter for extra richness.
