How to Make Our High-Protein French Dip Biscuits
This healthy comfort food recipe comes together fast. No complicated prep. Just layer, bake, and dip.
1. Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Split the Biscuits
Carefully slice each biscuit in half horizontally to create a top and bottom layer.
3. Add the Flavor
Spread a thin layer of creamy horseradish sauce on each cut side.
This gives that classic French dip sandwich kick without overpowering the filling.
4. Build the High-Protein Layers
On half of the biscuit bottoms:
- Place 1 slice of provolone cheese
- Add a generous portion of thinly sliced roast beef
Top with the remaining biscuit halves and gently press the edges together to seal.
5. Bake Until Golden
Arrange the filled biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the tops turn beautifully golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.
6. Prepare the Au Jus
While the biscuits bake, prepare the au jus gravy according to the package instructions.
Serve warm alongside the biscuits for dipping.
That first dip into the rich, savory au jus? Worth every second.
Storage & Serving Suggestions
Refrigerator:
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days.
Reheat:
Warm in a 350°F oven for 8–10 minutes to keep the biscuit texture crisp.
Avoid microwaving too long, as it may soften the layers.
Freezer-Friendly:
Wrap individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat straight from frozen in the oven.
Serving Ideas:
- Pair with a simple green salad for a balanced high-protein dinner.
- Serve with roasted vegetables for a clean eating twist.
- Slice in halves for party-ready appetizers.
Tips & FAQs
Can I make these ahead for meal prep?
Yes. These are perfect for easy meal prep. Assemble and refrigerate before baking, or bake fully and reheat throughout the week.
Can I use a different cheese?
Absolutely. Swiss or mozzarella work well if you want a slightly different flavor profile.
How can I increase the protein?
Add extra roast beef or use high-protein biscuits if available. You can also serve with a side of Greek yogurt-based dip for an added protein boost.
Can I make this lower carb?
You can swap the refrigerated biscuits for a low-carb biscuit or keto dough alternative to turn this into a more low carb, macro friendly meal.
Is horseradish necessary?
No, but it adds authentic French dip flavor. You can substitute Dijon mustard or skip it entirely for a milder taste.
