You may not know this, but Bisquick Pancake & Baking Mix is actually dairy free and vegan, which allows for all sorts of variations on this simple biscuit recipe. Add your favorite herbs, spices, or even dairy-free cheese to your dough to add a personal touch to these simple treats.

To make the best biscuits possible, make sure all of your ingredients (even the Bisquick, if possible) are very cold. You can even wear latex gloves while preparing the biscuits to prevent your body heat from raising the temperature.

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup soy milk, or dairy-free vanilla or almond milk, cold

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

  2. Preheat the oven to 450 F. Set aside a large ungreased baking sheet.

  3. In a small cup or bowl, whisk together the dairy-free soy milk (or other dairy-free milk alternatives) and lemon juice. Let it rest until it is slightly thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Recipe Variations

  • Add 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of fresh herbs like rosemary, basil, or chives to the dough, then sprinkle the tops of the biscuits with coarse sea salt and black pepper before baking.
  • Add 1/2 cup of your favorite shredded dairy-free cheese to the dough and sprinkle a little bit extra on top of the biscuits before baking.
  • Chop up olives, jalapeños, sun-dried tomatoes, or other small, flavorful accents to add to the dough.
  • For an extra dairy-free "buttermilk" kick, use coconut milk kefir, soy yogurt, or dairy-free sour cream in place of the soy milk-lemon juice mixture.

Tips

  • Biscuits, even those that are prepared from a mix, are best when they are handled the least possible amount before baking. Do not overhandle or overmix your ingredients; the mixture will come together fairly quickly, and overmixing will simply create denser biscuits.
  • When cutting the biscuits and transferring each to the baking sheet, try to make quick, sharp cuts. Use the bench scraper or blade, not your hands, to transfer the biscuits to the baking sheet.
