Do the recipes use baking soda for leavening? If so, the acidity of the
buttermilk is likely the trigger for the baking soda. I have no idea how
acidic soy milk is, so you might try substituting it and see if it works.
If it doesn't, try adding about 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar, which is
often used in recipes to provide the acid that activates the baking soda.
