Ingredients

  • 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour (or All Purpose Flour)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt
  • 4 tbsp non dairy unsalted butter (such as earth balance)
  • 1 cup unsweetened plain almond milk + 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

Method

  • Preheat oven to 450F
  • Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
  • Add cold butter and use fingers to combine the two until only small pieces remain and it looks like sand.
  • Work quickly so the butter doesnt get too warm.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients and, using a wooden spoon, stir gently while pouring in the almond milk mixture 1/4 cup at a time.
  • You may not need all of it.
  • Stir until just slightly combined it will be sticky.
  • Turn onto a lightly floured surface, dust the top with a bit of flour and then very gently turn the dough over on itself 5-6 times hardly kneading.
  • Form into a 1-inch thick disc, handling as little as possible.
  • Use a 1-inch thick dough cutter (I used a cup, that's all I have :) )and push straight down through the dough, then slightly twist.
  • Repeat and place biscuits on a baking sheet in two rows, making sure they just touch this will help them rise uniformly.
  • Gently reform the dough and cut out one or two more biscuits you should have 7-8.
  • (I got 9 out of my batch)
  • Next brush the tops with a bit more of melted non-dairy butter and gently press a small divot in the center using two fingers.
  • This will also help them rise evenly, so the middle wont form a dome.
  • Bake in a 450F oven for 10-15 minutes or until fluffy and slightly golden brown.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Let remaining biscuits cool completely before storing them in an airtight container or bag.
