Soy Biscuits Recipes

MUSCOVADO SOY BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.with rack in center. In a medium bowl, sift together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add 1/2 cup chilled butter; using a pastry blender or your hands, combine until mixture is crumbly. Stir in enough apple juice to form dough moist enough to drop from a spoon.
• In a small bowl, stir together 1/2 cup flour, cinnamon, and sugar. Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter; mix until well combined.
• Drop a heaping tablespoon of dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet; crumble 1/2 teaspoon of topping into center. Top with another heaping tablespoon of dough; sprinkle on 1/2 teaspoon of topping. Repeat with remaining ingredients, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Serve with honey butter.

VEGAN QUICK BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add margarine and cut it roughly into flour using a pastry cutter, until mixture is the texture of coarse meal with a few larger margarine lumps. Work quickly so the margarine does not melt. Add nondairy milk and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overwork.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and pat into an oblong shape, about 1 inch thick. Using a 2-inch floured cookie or biscuit cutter, cut the biscuits out and place them on a baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with melted margarine and bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until they begin to turn golden. Remove biscuits from oven immediately and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
• Make the maple "butter": In a mixing bowl, using a whisk or electric mixer, whip margarine with maple syrup until light and fluffy. Refrigerate until serving.

SOUR CREAM AND ONION BISCUITS

Steps:

• Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Whisk salt, pepper, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and 2½ cups flour in a large bowl to combine. Add chilled butter and toss to coat. Using your hands, work butter into dry ingredients until there are lots of flat pieces and pea-size bits. Add scallions and toss to evenly distribute.
• Create a well in the center of mixture and add 1¼ cups sour cream into the center. Using a fork and working in circles, mix until large shaggy clumps form. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead once or twice until it comes together (flour your hands if needed). If there are any loose bits, add them to center of dough and knead once more to incorporate. Pat dough into an 8x4" rectangle about 1" thick.
• Working from a short side, fold dough in thirds as you would a letter. It doesn't need to overlap perfectly. Pat dough into another 8x4" rectangle, then fold dough in thirds like a letter one more time. Pat dough back into an 8x4" rectangle and cut in half lengthwise. Cut each half crosswise into 4 squares for a total of 8 biscuits.
• Transfer biscuits to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops gently with melted butter; sprinkle with sea salt. Bake biscuits until golden brown, 18-22 minutes. Serve warm with sour cream (or more butter!) for slathering.

SOUR CREAM BISCUITS
