I decided to sub 1/4 c of the flour with whole wheat flour. It worked just fine and next time I'll try 1/2c. I increased the baking powder to 1T and made the butter version which resulted in a rich, fluffy biscuit everybody enjoyed.

    These biscuits were so good. Very quick and easy to make, with delicious results. I used Crisco and buttermilk in these biscuits. They didn't raise very high...but...oh the flavor. They were light, fluffy and tender on the inside and crisp and crunchy on the outside, just the way I love em. Thanks so much for sharing. Into my keeper box this recipe goes.
