Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 grams All-purpose flour
- 180 grams Vegan butter
- 90 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the vegan butter with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar to the bowl and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Mix in the vanilla extract and salt, ensuring everything is well incorporated.
Gradually add the flour to the butter mixture, mixing with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to a thickness of about 0.5 inch (1.25 cm).
Use cookie cutters to cut shapes out of the dough and place the cut-out biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
Chill the cut biscuits in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to help them hold their shape during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the vegan shortbread biscuits with your favorite tea or enjoy as a delightful snack.
