Croque Monsieur Casserole
Jane's Adventures in Dinner
Ingredients
- Bechamel:
- 1/8 cup butter
- 1/8 cup flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp mustard powder
- 4 slices ham (you can use a deli ham or carve your own)
- Biscuits:
- 1/3 cup shortening
- 2 cups flour
- pinch salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 cup soured milk or buttermilk
- 8 slices swiss cheese
- Butter for casseroles.
Instructions
- Bechamel: melt butter, add flour and cook for a couple of seconds to get rid of the raw flour taste. Slowly add in the milk and add seasonings. Leave off to the side to cool.
- Biscuits: rub together shortening and flour, salt and leavening agents together to pebble size, add in milk. Lightly knead the dough and cut into 8 biscuits. Feel free to use a tube of biscuits to skip this part-you deserve a break.
- Butter four casseroles (you can do this in a 9x9 pan too) and follow the above directions for layering.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 385 degrees or until biscuits have puffed and the cheese on top has bubbled.
