Veganize it: Popeyes Biscuits

Veganize it: Taking a popular food or recipe and making it vegan

This isn't the healthiest recipe but I did like the simplicity of only 4 ingredients.

There was a time I went to Popeyes just for the biscuits and cajun rice.  I was instantly in love when I came across C'est La Vegan's recipe for Popeyes biscuits.

Ingredients:

2 cups Bisquick (you can make your own version here)
4 ounces vegan sour cream (I used Tofutti)
3 ounces club soda
2 – 4 ounces vegan margarine

Directions:

Brush some melted margarine in the bottom of a round cake pan [see Notes].  Mix the Bisquick, vegan sour cream and club soda together in a large bowl.  Sprinkle some Bisquick on your counter or board to keep the dough from sticking.  Dump the dough out and pat it down by hand until it’s about 1/2-inch thick.  Cut out rounds with a biscuit cutter, and place them into your “buttered” cake pan.  Brush the tops with some of the melted margarine.

Since I don't own a biscuit cutter, I used a cup to form the biscuits.

Bake them for 7 to 10 minutes, or until golden.  Just before the biscuits are done, brush the tops with more melted margarine, and let them finish baking.

Simple and very good

You're welcome! Let me know what you think

I'm not normally a biscuit person; I prefer rolls, which I have yet to make. But those biscuits look really good. I just learned that Bisquick was vegan. I just "assumed" it wasn't. You definitely can't beat 4 ingredients and 10 minutes!

I think that cutting biscuits with a cup is the classic traditionall thing to do! :)

Michelle, I didn't think it was vegan either until I saw this recipe. I haven't had Bisquick since I was a kid. lol

Sarah, I agree! Why waste $ on a cutter and there's always a cup? lol
