How to Make Baked French Dip Biscuits
These biscuits come together in just a few simple steps:
1. Prepare the Biscuits
Preheat your oven and lightly grease a muffin tin. Separate each biscuit and press it into the muffin cups, creating a little “biscuit bowl.”
2. Fill With Roast Beef and Cheese
Add a few slices of roast beef to each biscuit. Top with shredded provolone or Swiss for that signature melty French dip flavor.
3. Bake Until Golden
Bake until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown, and the cheese is bubbling.
4. Make the Au Jus
While the biscuits bake, whisk together the au jus mix according to the packet instructions. Warm it up and pour it into dipping cups.
5. Serve & Dip
Pop the biscuits out of the tin, serve warm, and dip them generously in the au jus. Pure comfort in every bite.
Tips for the Best French Dip Biscuits
- Don’t Overstuff: Too much filling can prevent the biscuits from baking evenly.
- Use Buttery Flaky Biscuits: They puff beautifully and hold more filling.
- Serve Hot: These are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven with warm au jus.
- Add-ons: Caramelized onions or a smear of garlic butter take them to the next level.

If you happen to have leftovers (rare!), here’s how to keep them:
- Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Warm in the oven or air fryer so they stay crisp on the outside.
