These light and fluffy Vegan Drop Biscuits are allergy friendly, and so easy to whip up. No pastry cutter or kneading necessary! In fact, the recipe contains only 6 basic ingredients that you’ll probably find your kitchen right now. I wrote the recipe and was eating them within 20 minutes – seriously fast.
These vegan biscuits are dairy free, egg free, and nut free as is. To make them Top 8 Free, simply substitute gluten free flour and soy free margarine. I used Earth Balance Soy Free buttery spread for these –– we don’t avoid soy, but I wanted to ensure they could be dairy AND soy free (which is another common allergen), and still be delicious. Spoiler: they can!
Vegan Drop Biscuits are sweet and tender, and delicious eaten on their own. I made them in the evening, and may have eaten several for “dessert”… They would also be good with a little butter and honey, which I know isn’t vegan, but is SO good on biscuits (and, after all, I am definitely not a vegan). Try using a little less sugar and add some spices for a more savory biscuit. Serve with a sausage or mushroom gravy for breakfast. These vegan biscuits are so versatile!

Awesome recipe!! Thank you!!
I just made one a half batches and it made about 17 two tablespoon size biscuits for me. From 14-17 minutes bake time depending on how done you want your biscuits. I erred at the 14 as they will have toaster oven time being warmed back up. Didn’t change a thing about the ingredients. Did half water and half oat milk. Thank you again!!! So easy!!
really light and took much longer to bake than what said….
Thank you for the feedback. I’m sorry they didn’t turn out the way you hoped! I haven’t made them in a long time, so perhaps I need to revisit the recipe and experiment a bit.
These are very light, as the photos show. My biscuits were pretty small when I made them — maybe yours came out bigger, and therefore took longer to bake? Either way, I hope you find a recipe that works for you!
