Easy Vegan Biscuits

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons vegan butter (frozen)
• 2 cups flour (plus more dusting)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup non-dairy milk

Instructions

1. 1

   About 30 minutes before you start to make these biscuits, place the vegan butter in a plastic bowl and place the bowl in the freezer to harden.

2. 2

   Preheat your oven to 425 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients, from the flour to the salt.

4. 4

   Add in the frozen butter and use a fork or a pastry knife to smash/cut the butter into the flour mixture. Do this until no large piece of butter remain and a course meal forms.

5. 5

   Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. If the dough is still too sticky, add in more flour until it's easy to handle.

6. 6

   Pour the dough onto a surface lightly dusted with flour and flatten it into a uniform layer. Fold half of the dough over itself and then flatten again. Rotate the dough 90 degrees and continue this process a few more times.

7. 7

   Flatten the dough into a 1 inch thick layer and, using a biscuit cutter or a mason jar lid, cut the dough out into biscuits. Combine any remaining scraps into another disk and continue this process until all the dough has been used. You should have 6-8 biscuits.

8. 8

   Place the biscuits onto your prepared baking tray and leave about 1/2-1 inch between each biscuit if possible. Bake them for about 12 minutes or until they've risen and are slightly golden brown.

9. 9

   Brush the tops of the biscuits with a little melted butter if desired and serve immediately.
