VEGAN NUTRITIONAL YEAST (NOOCH) CHEEZY BISCUITS

Steps:

• Pour the soymilk, almond milk, etc. into a glass measuring cup and stir in the lemon juice. Let it rest at room temp for 10 minutes to sour.
• Place the flour, nutritional yeast, baking powder, chili and garlic powders, and salt into a medium mixing bowl and stir them together.
• Pour the oil into the dry ingredient mix, and cut in with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture is crumbly.
• Using a fork, stir in just enough of the soured non-dairy milk so the dough can come together and can form into a large ball-- too much milk will make the dough sticky but not enough will make the biscuits dry.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured surface and knead it gently until it is smooth (about 25-30 times.) Gently form it into a ball.
• Reflour the work surface and roll the dough out into a 1/2 inch thick sheet.
• Cut the dough with a floured biscuit cutter-- the book recommends a 2.5" one but I find that using an empty can works, and I have heart-shaped biscuit cutters in both small, regular 2.5", and large size.
• Place the biscuits on a dry baking sheet or sil-pat as soon as they are cut. Arrange them close together if you want soft sides, but at least 1 inch apart for crustier sides.
• Bake at 400F for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. I'd recommend about 12-13 minutes for smaller biscuits and closer to 18 for bigger biscuits.

Cut this into 5 biscuits and place in small enough heavy pan (I prefer pampered chef pans) to where sides of biscuits touch each other. Spread tops of biscuits with buttermilk.
• Bake in 425 degrees F oven until nicely browned.

GLUTEN-FREE HAWAIIAN BREAD BISCUITS (YEAST-FREE) RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees In a large bowl, mix together white and brown rice flour, almond meal, sweet sorghum flour, potato starch and tapioca flour. Then mix in the baking soda and baking powder (mix very well with a fork). Mix in the salt, sugar, xanthan gum and dried orange zest. Make sure everything is mixed together well and set this bowl aside. In a medium sized bowl, add the vanilla extract and mix together with the eggs. Next, add the melted butter and apple sauce, mix again. Add the milk; mix well. Now combine the wet contents from the medium bowl into the large bowl with the flours. You can use a fork at first, but finish mixing the dough with your hands (as if you were kneading dough, do this for about 30 seconds). Now wash your hands. Grease a round 9 inch cake pan with non-stick spray or butter. Use a large ice cream scoop to scoop the dough into biscuits/balls of dough, place each one in the greased cake pan. When you're done, fill a cup with about 1/4 cup lukewarm water. Dip your clean pointer finger into the water, then you'll smooth out the tops of the biscuits with your wet finger -- you can also use melted butter and a sturdy pastry brush (about 1 tbsp butter), just make sure it's not hot! Bake the biscuits at 375 for about 15 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes then eat!
