Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup plant-based butter (natural), chilled and cubed
  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk (natural)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Begin by measuring all your ingredients carefully. Sift the self-rising flour to avoid lumps and have the plant-based butter (natural) chilled and cut into small cubes for easy incorporation.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour with salt and the natural gelling agent. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution for great texture and rise.
  3. Cut in the Butter: Using a pastry cutter or fingertips, work the plant-based butter (natural) into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. The butter pieces will create flaky layers in the biscuits.
  4. Add the Plant-based Milk (natural): Pour the plant-based milk (natural) slowly into the flour mixture, gently stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
  5. Shape the Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat to about 1-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or round glass to cut out biscuits, gathering scraps to repeat until all dough is used.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Arrange biscuits close together on a parchment-lined baking tray. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown on top. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Keep plant-based butter (natural) cold to create flaky layers.
  • Mix dough just until combined to maintain tenderness.
  • Use fresh self-rising flour for best rise and texture.
  • Place biscuits close together in the pan for soft edges.
  • Brush warm biscuits with plant-based butter (natural) after baking for shine and extra flavor.
