Ingredients

Scale
  • For Biscuits
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup vegan butter*
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbs baking powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 2 tsps sugar
  • For Gravy
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 white onion, diced
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbs fresh thyme
  • 1/4 cup chives, chopped
  • 8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced thin
  • 1/4 cup potato starch*
  • 1 cup vegetable stock
  • 3 cups almond milk
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your over to 425 degrees. Grease a large baking sheet with coconut oil or another high heat cooking oil.
  2. Combine both flours, baking powder, sugar and salt into a large bowl. Take the vegan butter and crumble it into the flour mixture on tablespoon at a time. You want to use your fingers to mix the butter into the flours by breaking the butter up and rubbing it into chunks of the flour. When the butter is fulling incorporated the mixture should look like slightly wet sand. If it doesn’t seem grainy enough yet add some more butter, I added 2 more tablespoons.
  3. Whisk the cider vinegar and the almond milk together. Make a well in the middle of the flour mixture and pour in the vinegar, almond milk mixture. Stir the flour into the mix gently until it is incorporated. You don’t want to over mix it because the biscuits will be tough instead of flaky.
  4. Lightly flour a surface and dump the mixture onto it. Fold the dough over gently about three times then pat it roughly into a rectangle about 1 1/2 inches thick. Now, use a biscuit cutter or a pint glass to cut out the biscuits. I use a cocktail shaker for this part because it’s sharp and the perfect size. You should end up with 8-10 biscuits.
  5. Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted vegan butter and bake for 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes is up, check on them. The bottoms should be golden brown. I had to cook mine for about three extra minutes.
  6. While the biscuits are baking, throw together the gravy! Prepare the gravy using the directions from my Vegan Poutine recipe. Let the biscuits cool and then serve topped with the gravy and some extra chives for garnish! Enjoy!

Notes

*You can use coconut oil instead of vegan butter if you don’t want to use soy products.
**For the Gravy you can use all purpose flour if you don’t have potato starch but double it and use a 1/2 cup.
