Dairy-Free Biscuits
Description
These flaky, dairy-free biscuits rise high in the oven. A real treat for everyone at your table, served with butter and jam, maple syrup, or sausage gravy.
Ingredients
•
2 cups all-purpose flour
•
1 tablespoon baking powder
•
1 tablespoon sugar
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
3 tablespoons vegan butter (such as Earth Balance®)
•
3 tablespoons coconut oil
•
1 cup cold unsweetened almond milk, or as needed
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking pan with parchment paper or a nonstick silicone baking mat.
2
Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in vegan butter and coconut oil with a pastry blender or a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3
Slowly stir in cold almond milk, adding just enough for a wet and sticky dough to come together.
4
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead (fold over) 15 times. Gently roll or pat dough to a thickness of 1 to 1 1/2 inches. Cut biscuits with a small biscuit cutter or a small bourbon glass. Gently re-roll dough scraps and cut remaining biscuits for a total of 12.
5
Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet so they are touching each other. Don't be afraid to squish them together as this helps them to rise even higher.
6
Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
