  • ½ cup Vegan Butter 112g
  • ¼ cup Caster Sugar Super-fine sugar
  • ¾ cup Soy Milk 180ml plus more for bushing the tops
  • 2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

For the Strawberries:

  • 16 ounces Fresh Strawberries 450g sliced, about 3 cups

For the Vegan Whipped Cream:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C)
  • Sift the flour into a mixing bowl, add the salt, and baking powder.
  • Add the vegan butter and rub it in with your fingers until the entire mix is crumbly. Add in the sugar.
  • Mix the lemon juice with the soy milk and allow it to curdle into buttermilk. Add it in with the dry ingredients and mix in with a spoon. Add in the vanilla.
  • Put flour on the surface of the dough. Add more flour as needed and form the dough into a big ball.
  • Flatten out the ball, cut out 4 cakes and place them on a parchment-lined baking tray.
  • Brush the top of the shortcakes with soy milk and then place into the oven and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown on top.
  • While the shortcakes are cooking, slice the strawberries and place them in a large bowl, mix in the sugar, and then place in the refrigerator.
  • Prepare your whipped cream, careful not to shake it. In an electric whisk, add powdered sugar, and whip it.
  • When the shortcakes are baked, slice them in half and then layer with sweetened strawberries and whipped cream.
