Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plant-based butter, chilled and cubed
- 1 cup plant-based milk, warmed slightly
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
Flavorings
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, finely minced or equivalent natural garlic flavoring
- 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (dill, parsley, or chives), optional
- 2 tablespoons melted plant-based butter mixed with garlic for brushing tops, optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and natural gelling agent until fully combined for even rising and perfect crumb structure.
- Cut in Plant-Based Butter: Cut the chilled plant-based butter into small cubes. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, creating pockets of buttery texture.
- Add Garlic and Herbs: Mix in the finely minced fresh garlic or natural garlic flavoring along with any fresh herbs you choose to use. Incorporating these now infuses each biscuit with a delicious garlicky aroma.
- Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Gradually stir in the warmed plant-based milk and a splash of vegetarian Worcestershire sauce. Gently mix just until the dough comes together, taking care not to overwork it to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
- Form and Bake: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle and cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter or glass. Place biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Optionally, brush the tops with garlic-infused melted plant-based butter for extra flavor. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
- Keep plant-based butter chilled to ensure better flakiness and fluffiness.
- Do not overmix the dough to avoid tough biscuits.
- Fresh garlic or natural garlic flavoring gives the best aroma and taste.
- Slightly warming the plant-based milk activates baking powder without curdling.
- For an aromatic finish, brush baked biscuits with herb-infused plant-based butter.
