Description

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • Pinch of natural gelling agent (optional)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cold plant-based butter
  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (natural)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Begin by gathering all your ingredients, ensuring your plant-based butter is well chilled. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) so it’s ready when dough is shaped.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-rising flour and optional natural gelling agent for even distribution. This creates the perfect base for light, airy biscuits.
  3. Cut in the Cold Plant-based Butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, quickly incorporate the cold plant-based butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with small pea-sized pieces. This step is key for the flaky biscuit layers you crave.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients and Mix: In a separate bowl, whisk plant-based milk, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and apple cider vinegar (natural). Pour this into the flour mixture and gently fold until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the dough tender.
  5. Shape and Cut the Biscuits: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangular shape about 3/4 inch thick. Fold it over a few times to create layers, then pat again. Use a round cutter to cut biscuits, pressing straight down without twisting.
  6. Bake to Golden Perfection: Arrange the biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet close together for soft sides or spaced apart for crispy edges. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden and puffed.

Notes

  • Keep plant-based butter cold until the last moment to ensure flaky, layered biscuits.
  • Do not overwork the dough to avoid tough biscuits.
  • Pat the dough gently instead of rolling to maintain delicate texture and layers.
  • Use a sharp cutter and press straight down to prevent sealing edges and encourage higher rise.
  • Bake the biscuits immediately after shaping for best rise.
