These came out really well for me, though I added a little sugar.

It's hard to believe all these reviews are for the biscuits that I made following this recipe. I thought they were AWFUL--dry, tasteless and nothing but horrible round lumps of baked dough. And they looked NOTHING like that picture. Very deceiving. I was attracted to them because I am trying to incorporate more whole wheat into our diet, but I will go back to my old recipe and make my own adjustments. Sorry!

Like the recipe, altho my biscuits still aren't perfect --it's a practice thing, I'm sure, not the recipe. I did used sweetened soy milk, probably not much difference. Anyhow,these are my tastiest biscuits yet! Thanks for the recipe!

Great biscuits! I sub.ed 1/2 cup of oats for 1/2 cup of the all-purpose flour, used water instead of milk, and threw in some cinnamon-- they turned out really well and are delicious fresh from the oven with a bit of honey.

This is a great recipe. It is so easy, which is great because my three year old loves to help in the kitchen.

Really impressed, we had everything but the whole wheat. Not a fan of shortening, made them within 10 minutes of reading the recipe, added honey instead of sugar and a little extra soy. Made huge biscuits, cooked evenly and fluffy and tasted great! Ate them with sausage and gravy.

These turned out yummy! I substituted an Oat Bran Blend (Hodgeson Mills) flour for the Whole wheat flour, made them more golden and a little sweeter. They don't puff up alot, but they are not heavy either. My kids and I ate them with strawberry jam for an afternoon snack -- they just disappeared. I dropped them by heaping tablespoon onto the cookie sheet and ended up with 12, not 16. My kids have asked me to make them again!

I am trying to prepare more healthy options so I used only the wheat flour and made a triple batch - using olive oil and skim milk. The amount of milk the conversion gave, as well as the baking powder, wasn't quite enough. I liked it and the kids seemed to as well, tho my husband requested the 1/2 white flour next time. This is the first whole wheat recipe I enjoyed. Please note, my biscuits didn't rise with just whole wheat flour but they were still a nice consistancy. Looked like rocks but not hard!

Very tasty! I used olive oil and added a teaspoon of sugar. These were great with vegan chili. Thank you!

These were wonderful. I'd been addicted to making regular biscuits (J.P.'s from this site) and managed to severely deplete my all purpose flour supply. I used a cup of each, and used olive instead of canola oil. I also added 1 tsp. of white sugar. They were a little crumbly, but no more than your average drop biscuit. My son LOVED them, and they were great with the chicken and rice soup I made. Oh. I used regular 1% milk too. I'm not vegan, so soy milk just isn't in the pantry! Thanks for the recipe!

I loved these biscuits! I only used whole wheat flour, which made them a little denser, so I increased the baking time slightly. They went great with soup.

Good and VERY easy. I served them with gravy. Without any toppings, I thought the flavor was a tiny bit lacking. If it weren't for the flavor I would have given them 5 stars. The texture was very moist a little dense but that is typical of whole wheat and one of the reasons why I prefer it. I did add a bit more milk (I used cow's milk). I also only got 9 large biscuits.
