Description

Fluffy, buttery Baking Powder Biscuits made easy with simple pantry staples and plant-based ingredients. Perfect for any meal, these quick and versatile biscuits pair wonderfully with smoked turkey bacon or plant-based cheese, offering a tender, flaky, and golden crust every time.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cold vegan butter (plant-based), cut into small cubes
  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (natural)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: Measure out all your dry ingredients all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl. Cut the cold vegan butter (plant-based) into small cubes for even mixing.
  2. Combine dry ingredients and butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, gently blend the cold vegan butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This is essential for creating flaky, tender biscuits.
  3. Add the wet ingredients: Pour in the plant-based milk and maple syrup (natural) gradually, stirring just until the dough starts to come together. Avoid over-mixing to keep the biscuits tender.
  4. Shape and cut the biscuits: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently pat it to approximately one-inch thickness. Use a round cutter to stamp out biscuits, pressing straight down without twisting to help the biscuits rise.
  5. Bake until golden: Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the tops are beautifully golden brown.

Notes

  • Keep your ingredients cold to create flaky layers.
  • Do not overwork the dough to avoid tough biscuits.
  • Use fresh baking powder for the best rise.
  • Pat the dough instead of rolling to maintain texture.
  • Bake on parchment paper to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
