Coconut Baking Powder Biscuits
Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour*
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons coconut oil, solid
- 3/4 cup coconut milk (see below) or regular milk
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt together. Cut in coconut oil and blend with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
With a fork, toss flour mixture while adding milk. Mix until a dough forms. Add more milk if needed. On a lightly floured surface, pat dough out until about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter and place on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake in preheated oven for 10–12 minutes. Delicious!
For coconut milk, mix approximately 2 teaspoons Coconut Cream Concentrate with 3/4 cup water or make homemade coconut milk.
*For best results, use 100% all-purpose flour or half and half with whole wheat flour.
