Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup cold vegan butter
• 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the cold vegan butter into small pieces and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the almond milk with the apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a minute to create vegan buttermilk.

Step 5

Pour the vegan buttermilk into the flour mixture. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat it into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Fold the dough in half, then pat it down again. Repeat this process 2-3 times to create layers for flakiness.

Step 7

Use a round cutter to cut out biscuits from the dough. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are almost touching for better rise.

Step 8

Reform the scraps of dough and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.

Step 10

Remove from oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm and enjoy!
