Baked French Dip Biscuits
Flaky, cheesy, beefy perfection — all baked into golden, handheld bites!
If you love the flavor of a classic French Dip sandwich but want something easier (and cuter!) to make, these Baked French Dip Biscuits are your next go-to recipe. They’re buttery, cheesy, and filled with warm roast beef — then served with savory au jus for dipping. Perfect as an appetizer, game-day snack, or easy dinner idea.
Ingredients
1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuits(such as Pillsbury Grands)
1 lb sliced deli roast beef
8 slices provolone cheese (or mozzarella for a milder flavor)
2 tbsp creamy horseradish sauce (optional but amazing flavor boost)
2 tbsp butter, melted (optional for brushing tops)
1 tsp dried parsley (optional garnish)
1 packet au jus mix, prepared according to package directions (for dipping)
Instructions
1. PREHEAT THE OVEN
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. PREPARE THE BISCUITS
Open the biscuit can and carefully separate each biscuit into two halves (you’ll have tops and bottoms).
Place the bottom halves on your prepared baking sheet, spaced a few inches apart.
3. LAYER THE FILLING
Spread a thin layer of creamy horseradish sauce on each biscuit bottom.
Add a few slices of roast beef(fold or tear as needed).
Place one slice of provolone cheese on top of the meat.
4. TOP AND SEAL
Place the top half of each biscuit over the cheese layer.
Press gently around the edges to help seal them (you can pinch them a little if needed).
For an extra golden look, brush the tops lightly with melted butterand sprinkle with dried parsley.
5. BAKE
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown on top.
The cheese should be melty and the centers warm.
6. PREPARE THE AU JUS
While the biscuits bake, prepare the au jus according to the package instructions — usually by whisking the mix into hot water and simmering for a few minutes.
Pour into small bowls for individual dipping.
7. SERVE AND ENJOY
Let the biscuits cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with au jus for dipping.
Tips & Variations
Spice it up: Add a slice of jalapeño or a smear of Dijon mustard inside each biscuit.
Cheese swap: Try Swiss, cheddar, or pepper jack for a flavor twist.
Meal prep: Assemble ahead of time and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
Party version: Cut biscuits smaller and use mini sliders for bite-sized appetizers.
Crispy edge tip: Brush a little egg wash (1 beaten egg + splash of water) on top for a shiny golden crust.

A simple side salad
Garlic butter roasted veggies
French fries or potato wedges
And of course… extra au jus for dipping!
