These easy dairy free biscuits come together super quickly, are full of plant based ingredients, and are great to meal prep on the weekends. They are a fantastic side with breakfasts, soups or stews, and are simple to make without milk or butter.
I first made these biscuits to serve on top of a veggie pot pie I was making. They were so good with the rich and creamy pot pie sauce! I’m glad I made a double batch because they were fantastic to toast up for breakfast the next day too.
I first made these biscuits to top my Vegetable Pot Pie recipe, which was fantastic on its own, but really transformed into something AMAZING with these biscuits on top! I was able to make the biscuits quickly while the pot pie was cooking on the stove top, so they didn’t really add and additional cooking time to my night.

How Do You Make Biscuits With No Milk or Butter?
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to combine.
- Cut the cold vegan butter into small chunks and work it by hand into the dry ingredients until the flour becomes dotted with butter. If you don’t have vegan butter, you can use shortening as a substitute.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and stir well until a shaggy dough forms.
- I hand-rolled the biscuits, forming into 2 inch balls and gently pressing them in my palms to flatten slightly. But you can use a biscuit cutter if desired.
- Place the biscuits on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, and cook for 12-15 minutes until they begin to brown.
- Remove from oven, let cool, and enjoy!
