I’ve never met a vegan biscuit that tasted so biscuity. So fluffy, flaky, and satisfying. I wasn’t sure the proper flakyness could be achieved with just coconut oil as the fat, but I’m here to report that it CAN. Coconut oil never ceases to amaze me.

The second best thing about these biscuits (because #1 is their scrumptiousness), is how simple they are. From the moment I decide I want to make them to the second they come out of the oven…about 20 minutes had passed. That’s it. Start to finish!

I love eating these warm with jam or agave, with mushroom gravy, or mashed avocado & sea salt. Also perfect for strawberry shortcake! Hosting a weekend brunch? DON’T FORGET TO MAKE THESE!!! Yes, I am yelling at you. ;)
