Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cold plant-based butter
- 3/4 cup plant-based milk
Optional Natural Flavorings
- 1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to promote quick rising and a golden crust.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until evenly combined for consistent rise and flavor.
- Cut in Plant-Based Butter: Using a pastry cutter or fingertips, cut the cold plant-based butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs, creating steam pockets for flaky layers.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the plant-based milk and mix gently until the dough comes together; avoid overworking to keep biscuits tender.
- Shape the Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat into a roughly 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut out rounds with a biscuit cutter or glass and place on the baking sheet close together for softer sides or spaced apart for crispier edges.
- Prepare Garlic Butter Spread: While baking, melt plant-based butter and mix with minced fresh garlic and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). Brush this generously over the tops of the hot biscuits after baking.
- Bake and Brush: Bake biscuits for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown. Immediately brush with garlic butter spread after removing from oven to lock in moisture and flavor.
Notes
- Keep ingredients cold to achieve flaky textures by creating steam pockets during baking.
- Do not overmix the dough to prevent dense, tough biscuits.
- Use fresh garlic in the butter topping for superior flavor and aroma.
- Brush biscuits while hot to maximize flavor adhesion.
- Try different biscuit shapes like squares or mini sliders for variation.
