Introduction: Vegan Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits
Jalapeno cheddar biscuits, what else do I need to say?😋
I made these biscuits vegan using dairy free butter and cheese. You can certainly use real butter and cheese but I highly encourage you to try the vegan version. They are so yummy you would never know they're vegan.
Supplies
2 cups all purpose flour
1.5 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup dairy free butter, frozen
2 Jalapenos, finely chopped
1 cup dairy free cheddar shreds
3/4 cup dairy free milk- I used soy milk
Measuring cups/spoons
Mixing bowl
Pastry cutter or fork
Rolling pin
Circle cutter
Grater
Plastic bag
Step 1: Mix Dry Ingredients
Add 2 cups of all purpose flour, 1.5 Tablespoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 2 Tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon salt to a large bowl, mix well.
Step 2: Add Butter
Take your frozen 1/2 cup of butter and shred using a grater
Once the butter is shredded use your pastry cutter (or knife) and cut the butter into smaller pieces
The goal is to have the butter look like fine parmesan cheese
Step 3: Add Chopped Flavor
Add your finely diced jalapeno and 1 cup of shredded cheese, mix well
Step 4: Add Wet Ingredient
Add 3/4 cup of milk, stir to incorporate until the dough becomes a cohesive ball
Place the dough ball in plastic bag and put in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
Step 5: Roll and Cut
After 30 minutes place your dough ball on lightly floured surface
Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to about half inch thick
Take your circle cutter and cut into biscuits
Transfer biscuits to baking sheet
Step 6: Bake Biscuits
Bake your biscuits for about 20 minutes or until golden brown
