Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 cup Dairy-free butter
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 4 slices Dairy-free cheese slices
• 4 slices Ham slices
• 0.25 cup Dairy-free mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 cup Arugula leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Whisk together until well mixed.

Step 3

Using a fork or pastry cutter, cut in the dairy-free butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together the unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar and let sit for 5 minutes to create a buttermilk substitute.

Step 5

Pour the almond milk mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until combined and a dough forms.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 3-4 times until it comes together.

Step 7

Roll the dough to about a 1/2-inch thickness and use a round cutter to cut out biscuits. Re-roll scraps if necessary.

Step 8

Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 9

While biscuits are baking, mix dairy-free mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl.

Step 10

Once biscuits are done, let them cool slightly. Then, using a serrated knife, carefully slice each biscuit in half.

Step 11

Spread a layer of the mayo-mustard mixture on each half of the biscuit.

Step 12

Place a slice of dairy-free cheese, a slice of ham, and a few arugula leaves onto the bottom half of each biscuit.

Step 13

Top with the other half of the biscuit and serve warm.
