Vegan Cinnamon Biscuits
These easy vegan cinnamon biscuits are a cross between a biscuit and a cinnamon roll.
Servings: 12 biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 TB baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 TB brown sugar
- 1 cup vegan buttermilk
- 5 TB vegan butter
- 1 TB oil
Filling
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 TB Cinnamon
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 teaspoon vegan milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Grease or line a cookie sheet with a Silpat and set aside. Make your vegan buttermilk by taking a glass measuring cup, adding 1 cup of vegan milk and 1 TB of vinegar, stir and let this thicken.Make your filling by combining the ingredients and set aside. Take a medium-size bowl and mix the flour, baking powder, salt, brown sugar. Now take your vegan butter, cut into small pieces and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter and cut the butter in until combined. Now add the oil and buttermilk. Mix this with a wooden spoon being careful not to over mix. Take the shaggy dough and place it on a Silpat, take half of your filling mixture and place it on the dough and fold it, then take the rest of the filling and put it on the now-folded side and fold again. *look at the pictures above if this is confusing. Create a disk with your dough and hand pat it down, you don't need to use a rolling pin, you want it about an inch thick, use your round biscuit cutter and cut out biscuits until it's gone, you will need to reshape it as you go. Place the biscuits on the Silpat evenly spaced and bake for 10-12 minutes. While baking make the glaze. Take a small bowl and combine the ingredients until smooth. Once the biscuits are done wait a minute or two and then glaze them. These are best the same day.
