2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
4 Tablespoons cold butter flavor vegetable shortening (I rarely recommend the butter flavor shortening, but, in my opinion, it makes difference in this recipe.)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon granulated sugar (organic if possible)
1/2 cup flax milk*
1/4 cup Seltzer water
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- *In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- *Cut shortening into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter, or your fingertips. Be careful not to make the mixture too warm with your hands.
- *Slowly add the flax milk and seltzer water, stirring just until a soft dough is formed.
- *Turn dough mixture out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead together BRIEFLY, just until the dough comes together enough to roll out. Too much kneading will make the biscuit tough, you don't want to develop the gluten.
- *Roll the dough gently to 1/2 inch thick, and cut with a 2 inch biscuit cutter.
- Bake on a baking sheet for 12 - 15 minutes.
- Serve while still warm!
You may substitute any other non-dairy milk of your choice here, although, I have not had great results with rice milk in this particular recipe.
As always, from The Allergy Safe Kitchen, I wish you "Good Cooking, and Safe Eating"!
