Make savory French Dip Stuffed Biscuits, combining tender roast beef, melted cheese, and caramelized onions inside flaky homemade biscuits, served with a rich au jus for dipping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup cold milk
  • 1 pound thinly sliced roast beef, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup beef broth (for au jus)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the onions: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onion and cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes until deeply caramelized. Set aside.
  2. Make the biscuit dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the cold milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. Assemble the biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out rounds using a 3-inch biscuit cutter.
  4. Fill the biscuits: Place a spoonful of caramelized onions, a small amount of chopped roast beef, and a sprinkle of provolone cheese onto the center of half the biscuit rounds. Top with the remaining rounds, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork.
  5. Bake: Place the stuffed biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops lightly with the beaten egg wash. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown.
  6. Prepare the au jus: While biscuits bake, combine the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes to slightly reduce. Keep warm for dipping.
  7. Serve immediately with the warm au jus for dipping.

Notes

  • For a shortcut, you can use refrigerated canned biscuit dough, but gently flatten each piece before filling.
  • If you have leftover roast beef, this recipe is an excellent way to use it for quick dinner bakes.
  • For extra flavor in the filling, add a teaspoon of dried thyme to the roast beef mixture.
