Ingredients
Biscuits (instructions on the back of package with some additions)
2 cups of Biscuit and Baking Mix
6 tablespoons of vegan butter or coconut oil
2/3 cup plant-based milk
2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar or white vinegar (to form buttermilk)
1/4 cup of sugar
1. 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1/2 cup of raisins (pre-soaked in hot water and drained)
Glaze
3/4 cop powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1-2 tablespoons of plant-based milk
Preparation
Step 1
Pre-heat oven to 450 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
To plump and soften the raisins, pour very hot or boiling water over your 1/2 cup of raisins and soak for 15 minutes then drain.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the Mix, cinnamon, and sugar. Add the vinegar to the plant-based milk and set aside.
Step 4
Add in the cut vegan butter or coconut oil and mash in with a back of a fork until the dough forms pea-sized clumps.
Step 5
Slowly add in the plant-based buttermilk and fold in the soaked raisins until a ragged ball of dough is formed. Being careful not to overwork the dough.
Step 6
Turn dough out on a floured surface and roll out with a rolling pin to around 3/4" thickness. Then using a medium biscuit cutter (or rim of glass) push down on the dough to cut biscuits out- avoid twisting biscuit cutter.
Step 7
Place biscuits on your prepared parchment lined pan and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tops of the biscuits are golden brown. Remove from oven and place biscuits on cooling rack.
Step 8
While the biscuits are cooling, prepare glaze by combining powdered sugar, vanilla, and plant-based milk (1 tablespoon at a time) in a small bowl and whisk together until smooth and no lumps.
*You can add more or less milk depending on the consistency you want for your glaze.
Pour glaze over your cooled biscuits and enjoy!
