Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup plant-based butter (cold)
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

Main Ingredient

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar (natural), natural gelling agent, lemon zest, and salt until well combined to ensure even distribution and uniform rise.
  2. Cut in the Plant-Based Butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, quickly cut the cold plant-based butter into the dry mixture until the texture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits throughout. This creates tender layers and a flaky bite in the biscuits.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients and Blueberries: Pour in the almond milk and vanilla extract (natural), folding gently with a spatula until just moistened. Carefully fold in fresh blueberries, avoiding bursting them to keep the dough light and dotted with juicy fruit.
  4. Shape and Bake: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently fold it a few times just to bring it together; it should be slightly sticky. Pat or roll it out to about 1-inch thickness and cut out biscuits using a round cutter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing evenly. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the tops are golden and slightly crisp.
  5. Cool and Enjoy: Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving warm. The aroma of blueberries and citrus zest will fill your kitchen inviting you to savor each bite.

Notes

  • Keep the plant-based butter cold for a flaky biscuit texture.
  • Do not overmix; gently fold ingredients to keep the dough tender and avoid dense biscuits.
  • Use fresh blueberries rather than frozen to prevent excess moisture.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  • Work quickly to achieve fluffier biscuits.
