I first whipped up these biscuits on a chilly autumn day when I craved something comforting and warm.

Using chilled coconut oil was a game-changer—it makes the biscuits light and flaky, just the way I like them.

I love how these little golden rounds fill my kitchen with the aroma of home and happiness, always bringing a smile to my face.

Baking them feels like a big, warm hug from the universe.

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

If you're out of whole wheat flour, half all-purpose works and gives them a slightly lighter texture. I switch between coconut oil and vegan butter depending on what’s in the fridge—both are lovely, just with their own character.

Tips & Notes

  • Don't be tempted to knead too much—less is more for a perfectly tender crumb.
  • I keep mine in a basket with a tea towel over them to stay soft and warm.
  • If they cool off, a quick five-second microwave burst brings them back to life.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I'll sprinkle in some rosemary or thyme if I'm feeling a bit herby.
  • For a touch of indulgence, I occasionally add a handful of vegan cheese shreds.

Storage & Freezing

Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the biscuits in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use gluten-free flour?

Yes, you can substitute with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, but the texture may differ.

How can I make these biscuits savory?

Consider adding herbs like rosemary or thyme, or incorporate nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk.

  3. 3

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sifted whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  4. 4

    Pour the melted coconut oil and maple syrup into the dry ingredients and mix until crumbly.

  5. 5

    Add the vegan buttermilk to the mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

  6. 6

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it about 5-6 times until it comes together.

  7. 7

    Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

  8. 8

    Gather any scraps of dough, knead them gently, and cut out more biscuits until all dough is used.

  9. 9

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown.

  10. 10

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
