Then, add the room temp. vegan butter or shortening and blend with a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

3

Pour in 1/2 cup of the buttermilk. Mix to combine. If the mixture looks too dry and isn’t coming together, continue adding the remaining buttermilk.

4

Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly just until it forms a nice disc to roll. Press it into a rough rectangle and fold the dough 4 or 5 times onto itself.

5

Press the dough into a rectangle, about ¾” thick. Using a biscuit cutter or a circular glass, cut the dough into 6-8 biscuits, about 2-3” in diameter.
