Equipment

  • Box Grater

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour [300g]
  • 2 tbsp baking powder (28g)
  • ½ cup vegan butter (113g)
  • 1 cup vegan buttermilk 1 cup [240ml] non-dairy milk + 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp organic cane sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 450F (232C).
  • Prepare vegan buttermilk by mixing very cold non-dairy milk (unsweetened and unflavored) with the apple cider vinegar. Set aside for a few minutes to curdle.
  • In a large bowl add the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Mix together.
  • Grate the vegan butter using a box grater.
  • In the bowl make a well and add the vegan buttermilk in. Gently mix the flour and allow it to absorb the liquid.
  • Then add in the vegan butter and continue to gently stir. Mix the dough carefully until it comes together and starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Empty the dough out onto a clean, floured surface and work the dough into a medium sized rectangle.
  • Then lift the dough and fold it over itself. Repeat the process of gently pressing the dough to spread it out, lifting and folding 5 more times.
  • Then finally work it into one more medium sized rectangle about ½ inch to 1 inch thick.
  • Using a biscuit cutter or mason jar lid cut the biscuits out.
  • Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper touching each other. This will help them to rise better as they bake.
  • Repeat steps 7-11 with the excess dough.
  • Bake the biscuits for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Enjoy warm out of the oven.
