Ingredients
Filling:
3 Tbsp butter
1 onion, diced
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp dried sage
Freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup vegetable broth
1 lb frozen mixed vegetables
Cheddar biscuit topping:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tsp baking powder
6 Tbsp cold butter
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp chopped chives, optional
1 cup milk
Instructions
1. Cook the diced onion in butter in a deep oven-safe skillet over medium heat until softened.
2. Stir in the flour and cook briefly.
3. Whisk in the milk until smooth, then add salt, thyme, sage, and black pepper.
4. Simmer while whisking until the mixture thickens.
5. Add the vegetable broth and bring the mixture back to a simmer until a creamy sauce forms.
6. Stir in the frozen vegetables and cook over low heat until heated through.
7. Heat the oven to 425°F or 220°C.
8. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
9. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
10. Mix in the cheddar cheese and chives.
11. Pour in the milk and stir until a dough forms.
12. If needed, add a little flour to reduce stickiness.
13. Press the dough onto a lightly floured surface to about 3/4-inch thickness.
14. Cut the dough into 6 biscuits.
15. Arrange the biscuits over the vegetable filling.
16. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the biscuits are golden and the filling bubbles.
17. Serve hot.
Notes
Use a frozen vegetable blend that includes carrots, corn, and green beans.
Lima beans also work well in the filling.
Store-bought biscuits can replace homemade biscuits.
Optional additions include diced potatoes, mushrooms, cooked chicken, or leftover turkey.
Cook potatoes and mushrooms before adding them.
If using chicken, chicken broth may replace vegetable broth.
Green onions can replace chives.
If you do not have an oven-safe skillet, prepare the filling on the stovetop, transfer it to a baking dish, add the biscuits, and bake.
The finished dish reheats well in the microwave.
