Whip up a quick and dairy-free alternative to traditional buttermilk with this easy recipe for Soy Buttermilk! Perfect for vegan baking and cooking, this simple concoction requires just two ingredients: unsweetened soy milk and apple cider vinegar.

Add 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to the soy milk.
Stir the mixture thoroughly with a spoon or whisk to combine.
Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. During this time, the acid in the vinegar will curdle the soy milk slightly, mimicking the texture and tanginess of traditional buttermilk.
After 5 minutes, your soy buttermilk is ready to use in your favorite recipes! If not using immediately, it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
