Ingredients You’ll Need

With just a handful of simple ingredients, these Baked French Dip Biscuits come together in a snap, yet taste anything but basic. Each component brings the perfect balance of flavor, texture, and color—making these irresistible bites a true crowd-pleaser.

Refrigerated Flaky Biscuit Dough (8 count): The shortcut that gives you fluffy, golden layers without the hassle of homemade dough.
Deli Roast Beef (8 slices): Choose a good-quality, thin-sliced roast beef for the ultimate savory filling.
Provolone Cheese (8 slices): Melty, mild, and buttery—provolone is classic, but you can also try Swiss for a twist.
Unsalted Butter (2 tablespoons, melted): Brushed on top for that crave-worthy golden crust and richer flavor.
Garlic Powder (1 teaspoon): A quick way to infuse big garlicky aroma right into the biscuits.
Dried Parsley (1 teaspoon): Adds a pop of color and a whisper of herbal freshness.
For the au jus:
Butter (1 tablespoon): Helps form a luscious, rich base for your dipping sauce.
All-Purpose Flour (1 tablespoon): Thickens the au jus just slightly so it clings to each dip.
Beef Broth (1½ cups): The heart of your au jus; choose a high-quality or homemade broth if possible.
Worcestershire Sauce (1 teaspoon): Brings deep, savory, almost umami notes to the party.
Onion Powder (½ teaspoon): Adds classic French dip flavor depth quickly and easily.
Salt and Pepper (to taste): Essential for seasoning—always taste and adjust as needed.

How to Make Baked French Dip Biscuits

Step 1: Prep Your Oven and Muffin Tin

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F, so it’s ready for your biscuits to bake up beautifully golden. While it heats, lightly grease your muffin tin to ensure the biscuits release effortlessly once baked—no stuck-on messes means each one comes out picture-perfect!

Step 2: Assemble the Biscuits

Pop open your can of biscuit dough and gently separate each one. Flatten each biscuit out just a bit with your hands—enough to make a circle that can comfortably hold the savory filling. Layer a slice of deli roast beef and a slice of provolone cheese right in the center, then fold up the edges and pinch to seal, forming a tidy little package of flavor.

Step 3: Prepare for Baking

Arrange each stuffed biscuit, seam-side down, into the muffin tin cups. This helps them puff up into perfect domes. Next, stir together your melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Generously brush the tops of each biscuit for a glossy finish and irresistible aroma when baking.

Step 4: Bake to Golden Perfection

Slide your muffin tin into the oven and bake for about 13 to 16 minutes. Keep an eye out for that gorgeous golden color and slightly crisp top—it’s your cue that the Baked French Dip Biscuits are ready to wow!

Step 5: Whip Up the Au Jus

While the biscuits bake, make your cozy, homemade au jus. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour to create a quick roux, then slowly add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and a dash of salt and pepper. Let it simmer a few minutes until slightly thickened—the aroma alone is irresistible.

Step 6: Serve and Savor

Once the biscuits emerge hot and golden, let them cool just a moment before popping them out of the tin. Arrange them on a plate alongside warm au jus for dipping and watch them disappear. Each bite promises a glorious melty, beefy, garlicky payoff!

Baked French Dip Biscuits: How to Serve

Garnishes

Top your Baked French Dip Biscuits with a sprinkle of extra parsley, a few grinds of black pepper, or even a pinch of flaky salt. For a little zing, offer horseradish sauce or Dijon mustard for dipping alongside the au jus—the flavor boost takes these to the next level.

Side Dishes

Pair these savory biscuits with a crisp green salad dressed in tangy vinaigrette, crunchy dill pickles, or roasted vegetables. They also pair perfectly with classic potato chips, fries, or even a cup of homemade soup for a hearty lunch or casual dinner.

Creative Ways to Present

Arrange your Baked French Dip Biscuits in a rustic bread basket lined with a linen towel for charming, family-style sharing. For parties, serve them on a wooden platter with au jus in mini dipping cups, or thread them onto skewers for a whimsical pick-up appetizer presentation.

Make Ahead and Storage

Storing Leftovers

Let any leftover biscuits cool to room temperature, then transfer them to an airtight container. They’ll keep well in the refrigerator for up to three days while still tasting delicious reheated.

Freezing

To freeze, wrap each baked (and fully cooled) biscuit individually in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag. Frozen Baked French Dip Biscuits keep their flavor and texture for up to one month—just thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

Reheating

For best results, reheat the biscuits in a 325°F oven for about 8 to 10 minutes or until warmed through and crisped up. Microwaving works in a pinch, but baking preserves that irresistible flaky texture.

FAQs

Can I use a different cheese instead of provolone?

Absolutely! While provolone gives that classic, creamy melt, Swiss, mozzarella, or even sharp cheddar would all be delicious alternatives. Feel free to play around with what you love or what you have on hand.

What’s the best way to keep the bottoms from getting soggy?

Lightly greasing the muffin tin and baking the biscuits seam-side down helps create a crisp base. Letting the biscuits rest a minute or two before removing from the tin also keeps the bottoms perfect.

Can I prep Baked French Dip Biscuits ahead of time?

You can assemble the stuffed biscuits up to four hours in advance and refrigerate, covered. Just brush with butter and bake right before serving for fresh, perfectly puffy results.

Is it possible to make these vegetarian?

Swap the roast beef for sautéed mushrooms or plant-based deli slices, and use a rich mushroom or vegetable broth for the au jus—your vegetarian guests will be just as happy!

Can I double the recipe for a party?

Definitely! This recipe is easy to scale up—just use multiple muffin tins or bake in batches. Baked French Dip Biscuits are always a hit at gatherings, so you might want to make an extra batch.

Final Thoughts

Once you try Baked French Dip Biscuits, you’ll find yourself coming up with new excuses to make them again and again. They’re cozy, fun, and practically guaranteed to win over your family or friends, so don’t wait—bake up a batch and make some delicious memories!
