These Vegan Pretzel Biscuits are soft, fluffy, and perfectly golden with a classic pretzel crust. Made entirely plant-based with all-purpose flour, vegan butter, and oat milk, they are a delightful twist on traditional biscuits. The biscuits are boiled briefly in baking soda water to develop the signature pretzel crust and finished with coarse salt topping. Served warm with a luscious vegan honey butter made from agave syrup, they’re perfect for breakfast, snacks, or alongside any meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 Cups All purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon Organic cane sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 Cup Vegan butter, cold
  • 1/2 Cup Non-dairy milk, unsweetened (oat milk recommended)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar

Baking Soda Water Bath

  • 1 Cup Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking soda
  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • Coarse salt for topping

Vegan Honey Butter

  • 1/4 Cup Vegan butter, room temperature
  • 2 Tablespoons Agave syrup
  • Pinch of Salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it’s ready for baking the biscuits.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, organic cane sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Add Cold Butter: Cut the cold vegan butter into small cubes and add them to the dry ingredients.
  4. Incorporate Butter: Use a fork or pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour mixture. Then use your fingers to pinch and press the butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
  5. Add Wet Ingredients and Form Dough: Pour in the non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir the mixture, then knead with your hands until the dough is evenly combined and smooth.
  6. Chill the Dough: Place the dough in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the baking soda water bath and toppings.
  7. Prepare Baking Soda Water Bath: Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda, stirring until dissolved. Reduce heat to low to keep warm.
  8. Roll and Cut Biscuits: On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a circle or square cutter to cut out biscuits. Gather scraps, re-roll, and cut additional biscuits until all dough is used.
  9. Arrange Biscuits on Baking Sheet: Place the cut biscuits on a non-stick sprayed baking pan, positioning them right next to each other to help them rise evenly.
  10. Brush with Baking Soda Water: Remove the baking soda water from heat. Generously brush the tops and sides of each biscuit with the warm baking soda water to create the classic pretzel crust.
  11. Oil and Salt Topping: Brush the biscuit tops with vegetable oil and sprinkle with coarse salt to finish the pretzel-like exterior.
  12. Bake Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven for 13 to 16 minutes or until the biscuits turn a nice, deep golden brown.
  13. Make Vegan Honey Butter: While the biscuits bake, whisk together the room temperature vegan butter, agave syrup, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
  14. Serve: Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and serve warm with the vegan honey butter spread on top.

Notes

  • Use cold vegan butter to ensure a flaky biscuit texture.
  • Chilling the dough before rolling helps with handling and flakiness.
  • The baking soda water bath is essential for creating the pretzel crust characteristic flavor and appearance.
  • You can substitute oat milk with any other unsweetened non-dairy milk.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days and reheat before serving.
