Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Place the refrigerator biscuits in an 8-inch round pan.
- Mix the melted butter with the dry onion soup mix.
- Spread the butter and onion soup mixture on top of each biscuit.

Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, consider adding shredded cheese or chopped herbs to the butter and onion mixture. If you prefer a healthier option, you can substitute the refrigerator biscuits with homemade whole wheat biscuits. Make sure to keep an eye on the biscuits while baking, as oven temperatures can vary, and you don't want them to over-brown.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these crispy onion biscuits warm as a delightful side with soups or salads. They pair beautifully with Decadent Brownie Pie for dessert, making for a satisfying meal. You can also enjoy them as a snack or appetizer, perhaps alongside a chilled beverage, for a casual gathering.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through. Avoid microwaving, as this can make the biscuits chewy instead of crispy.
