Herb Baking Powder Biscuits

Biscuits are traditionally made with a solid fat like butter but they're even better with canola oil! Replace solid fats with canola oil and you'll cut total fats as well as trans and saturated fats.

Strawberry Shortcake

This recipe celebrates summer with all the luscious flavors you expect from this all-time favorite dessert, but in a healthier and easier way. The biscuits are made better-for-you with canola oil instead of butter and half whole-grain flour. They are simple drop biscuits; no rolling or dough-cutting required. And the whipped cream topping is lightened with Greek yogurt for a subtle tanginess that beautifully complements the fresh berries.
