Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend for gluten-free option)
  • 1/4 cup plant-based butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (fresh)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon natural sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup natural buttermilk (plant-based)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), optional but recommended

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure your plant-based butter is cold and cubed to create tender, flaky layers during baking.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend), baking powder, baking soda, natural sugar, and salt until combined for even rising and consistent flavor.
  3. Cut in the Butter: Add the cold plant-based butter cubes to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or fingertips to blend quickly until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, being careful not to overwork the dough.
  4. Add the Buttermilk Mixture: Pour in the natural plant-based buttermilk and the vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). Gently fold with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined; the dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
  5. Shape and Cut the Biscuits: Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat out into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough over itself twice to create layers, then pat out again. Use a biscuit cutter to cut rounds, pressing straight down to keep edges sharp.
  6. Bake Until Golden: Place the biscuit rounds on the prepared baking sheet with space to expand. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until tops are golden and aroma fills your kitchen.

Notes

  • Keep plant-based butter and buttermilk cold for flakier layers and better rise.
  • Do not overmix the dough to avoid tough biscuits.
  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda for best rising results.
  • Press biscuit cutter straight down without twisting to maintain sharp edges and better rise.
  • Bake biscuits on the middle oven rack for even cooking.
