Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup dry onion mix
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuits

Instructions

  1. Combine melted butter and dry onion mix in a bowl.
  2. Pour half of the onion mixture into a greased 8-inch round pan.
  3. Arrange the refrigerated biscuits over the onion mixture in the pan.
  4. Pour the remaining butter and onion mixture over the biscuits.
  5. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12 to 14 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Serve hot with melted garlic butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Tips & Substitutions

For extra flavor, consider adding some garlic powder or fresh herbs to the onion mixture. If you don't have dry onion mix, you can substitute it with finely chopped onion and a sprinkle of salt. Using homemade biscuits can elevate the dish, but store-bought works perfectly for convenience. This recipe is perfect as a quick snack or appetizer, especially when served warm.

Serving Suggestions

These crispy onion rolls are best served hot out of the oven, drizzled with melted garlic butter and sprinkled with Parmesan cheese for an extra touch of richness. They pair wonderfully with a fresh salad or as a side to soups and stews. For a delightful meal, serve alongside Frances' Butterscotch Pie for dessert.

Storage & Reheating

Leftover onion rolls should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until warmed through. Alternatively, you can microwave for about 20-30 seconds, but this may result in a softer texture.
