Cruz Chop Vegan Biscuits & Gravy

Published By Mushroom Angel

The Biscuit
First, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a pan with parchment paper. Place the vegan butter in the freezer for a few minutes. Combine the dry ingredients either in a large bowl OR food processor. Add cold vegan butter to dry ingredients in the food processor or a large bowl. Pulse or cut with a pastry cutter until crumbs form. If you use a food processor, dump the mixture into a
bowl. Pour the vegan buttermilk into the bowl, saving a few tablespoons for brushing the tops. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. Scoop it onto a lightly floured surface and gently form it into a rectangular shape. Fold one side into the center, then the other. Turn it a half turn, and flatten again gently into a rectangle. Repeat two more times. This is what makes all those flaky layers! On the last turn, flatten to about 1 inch thick and cut into circles using a biscuit cutter.

Vegan Biscuit Gravy
1⁄3 cup of Gluten free flour
3 cups of Unsweetened soy, oat, or almond milk
1 tablespoon vegan butter
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
1/8 teaspoon dried crushed rosemary
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
The Vegan Gravy
Add flour, cashew milk, and vegan butter into a small saucepan. Cook on medium heat for 5-10 minutes, constantly stirring until the gravy thickens. Add the thyme, rosemary, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Taste the gravy and add any additional seasonings, salt, or pepper, as desired.
Charred 8 Oz of Cruz Chop
Preheat a large pan to medium-high heat, 350 - 375 degrees, with a tablespoon of oil, and cook Cruz Chop for about 12 minutes until charred, i.e., not wet visually but not burnt.
