Ingredients

  • 1/2 stick oleo
  • 1 (10 count) can biscuits

Instructions

  1. Melt oleo in a small baking pan.
  2. Cut biscuits in half, making half moon shapes.
  3. Dip both sides of each biscuit half in the melted oleo and place in the pan.
  4. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the biscuits.
  5. Bake at 350°F until lightly browned.

Tips & Substitutions

For extra flavor, consider adding minced garlic or dried herbs to the melted oleo before dipping the biscuits. If you don’t have oleo, unsalted butter works perfectly as a substitute. For a twist, try using different types of cheese, like mozzarella or cheddar, instead of Parmesan. These rolls are quick and easy, making them a great addition to any meal or perfect for snacking.

Serving Suggestions

These rolls are delicious served warm as a side with pasta dishes or soups. They pair beautifully with No Crust Fudge Pie for a delightful meal. Consider serving them alongside a fresh salad or with a dip like marinara for added flavor. They also make great appetizers for gatherings or family dinners.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover rolls 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. This will help maintain their crispy exterior. For longer storage, you can freeze them in a freezer-safe bag for up to a month.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these rolls with homemade biscuit dough?

Absolutely! You can use your favorite homemade biscuit recipe instead of store-bought biscuits. Just cut the dough into half moon shapes as instructed. This allows you to customize the flavor and texture, making it a fun way to elevate this simple dish. Just ensure the baking time remains the same.

What can I use if I don't have Parmesan cheese?

If you’re out of Parmesan, consider using grated pecorino Romano or even a blend of mozzarella and cheddar for a different flavor profile. Nutritional yeast is also a great dairy-free alternative that can add a cheesy flavor without using actual cheese, making this recipe suitable for various dietary preferences.

Can I add other ingredients to the rolls?

Definitely! Feel free to add chopped herbs, cooked bacon bits, or even sautéed onions to the biscuit halves before baking. This will enhance the flavor and create a more hearty roll. You can also experiment with different cheeses to find the combination that your family loves best.
