Ingredients
  

  • 5 1/2 cups 1:1 gluten free baking flour
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups (1 1/2 sticks) very cold vegan butter
  • 2 cups homemade vegan buttermilk (2 tbsp apple cider vinegar then enough milk to fill 2 cups)
  • 1/4 cup full fat coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup vegan butter, melted

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free baking flour, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt, and granulated sugar.
  • Cut the very cold vegan butter into small cubes. Add to the dry ingredients and cut in with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the homemade vegan buttermilk, full fat coconut milk, and maple syrup.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough will be shaggy.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead 3-4 times, then pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds (like a letter), then pat down again. Repeat this folding and patting 2-3 more times to create layers. Cut into desired biscuit shapes using a biscuit cutter or knife.
  • Place the biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown on top and cooked through. Brush with melted vegan butter immediately after removing from the oven.
  • Serve warm and enjoy immediately.
