Vegan Banana Biscuits
Soft, flaky, and naturally sweetened, these Vegan Banana Biscuits are a delightful plant-based twist on traditional comfort food. Perfectly golden and infused with the natural sweetness of ripe banana and a hint of maple syrup, these dairy-free and egg-free biscuits are as easy to make as they are to devour. Solid coconut oil creates tender layers, while unsweetened almond milk ensures a light and airy texture. Ready in under 30 minutes, they are an ideal option for a quick breakfast, snack, or side dish. Enjoy them warm from the oven, topped with vegan butter, jam, or a drizzle of extra maple syrup for a comforting, homemade treat suitable for all dietary preferences.

Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 large Ripe banana
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 4 tablespoons Coconut oil (solid state)
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract, and stir to combine.
Add the solid coconut oil to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the coconut oil into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour the banana mixture into the flour mixture. Stir gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a round disk about 1/2 inch thick.
Using a round biscuit cutter (or the rim of a glass), cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather and reshape the scraps to cut out more biscuits.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature with your favorite toppings or spreads.
