Substitutions + Alternatives

Can I use All-Purpose Flour?

Yes, All-Purpose Flour can be used. Use the same amount that is listed in the ingredients, but swap with all purpose.

Can I use regular dairy?

Feel free to make this recipe your own. I use oat milk, but feel welcome to choose your preferred dairy option without any recipe adjustments. Unless specified otherwise, you have the flexibility to use the milk of your choice for the recipe.

Note: While almond milk is an option, it is less preferred due to its liquid consistency. Consider opting for a milk alternative with a thicker texture.

How To Make Cherry Pie Biscuits

Preheat the Oven: Get things started by preheating your oven to 450 degrees.
Prepare the Pan: Brush a 9″ cast iron skillet or a 7×10 baking dish with butter to prevent sticking.
Create Buttermilk: If using dairy-free milk, whisk together oat milk and vinegar to create buttermilk.

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, mix all dry ingredients until well combined.
Incorporate Butter: Cut in the cold butter until pea-sized crumbs form.
Add Buttermilk: Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Chill the Dough: Place the dough in the freezer for 20 minutes.
Scoop and Bake: Remove from the freezer and scoop 6 large biscuits into the baking dish. Top with cherry pie filling and bake for 20 minutes.

Prepare Glaze: Mix milk and powdered sugar until smooth. Drizzle on top of the baked biscuits.
Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy every delicious bite!
