Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir and let it sit for 5 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk substitute.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
Cut the cold vegan butter into small cubes and add it to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Fold in the vegan cheddar cheese and chopped scallions evenly.
Pour the vegan buttermilk into the mixture and gently stir until a rough, sticky dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, drop mounds of dough (about 2–3 tablespoons each) onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden on top and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These biscuits are best enjoyed warm.
