"I altered this slightly from a recipe I found online. These are very yummy with sausage gravy. This makes approximately 6-12 biscuits depending on the thickness of the dough."

Very good biscuits! I used spelt flour, so they were hearty but still rose very well. I also used only 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. They turned out great, and I will use this recipe again.
