Many would say that there is no substitue for butter, but the act of substituting olive oil for vegetable oil will indeed make a biscuit. It will, however, alter the flavor. I find in baking, olive oil is not only much healthier, but it also makes the flavor of the rest of the ingredients more vivid. I would suggest using olive oil rather than vegetable oil whenever possible.

Butter or margarine for solid, I use oil in mine. About 1/4 cup of oil for 2 cups flour.More information:Lard is also an appropriate solid fat for making biscuits. Oil will produce biscuits with a noticeably different texture than those made with solid fats. However, when nutrition is a key consideration, biscuits made with oil, including olive oil, are perfectly acceptable quick breads.

So thierfore it can be used for cooking in food, but think how your chips taste when you leave too much oil on them - that's the taste you'll be adding to your recipe, but, if your going to do it - try be sparing with it or add extra herbs / spices to cover the taste.
