Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon natural baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chilled plant-based butter
  • 1 cup cold plant-based buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon natural sweetener (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: Whisk together the all-purpose flour, natural baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl to evenly distribute the leavening agents for perfect biscuit rise.
  2. Cut in the Plant-Based Butter: Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to break the chilled plant-based butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs, creating flaky biscuit layers.
  3. Add the Buttermilk: Pour the cold plant-based buttermilk into the dry mixture all at once. Gently fold the mixture with a spatula or your hands just until the dough comes together to avoid tough biscuits.
  4. Shape and Cut the Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 3/4 inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough over itself several times to form layers, then pat again to flatten. Use a biscuit cutter or glass to cut rounds, placing them on a baking sheet.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until biscuit tops are golden brown and slightly crisp. Let cool briefly before serving warm.

Notes

  • Keep ingredients cold to ensure flaky layers.
  • Do not overwork the dough to maintain light texture.
  • Use fresh natural baking powder and baking soda for best results.
  • Folding the dough creates flakiness but can be skipped if short on time.
  • Bake immediately after cutting for maximum rise and texture.
