Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 cup Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 cup Vegan butter
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.75 cup Vegan shredded cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir and set aside for 5-10 minutes to create vegan buttermilk.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and nutritional yeast.
Cut the vegan butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour the vegan buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the vegan shredded cheese until evenly distributed.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it just comes together.
Roll the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness and use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Gather the scraps, re-roll, and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your warm vegan cheesy biscuits!
