A friend from church made this and shared it with me—it was incredibly creamy and so tender it practically fell apart with a fork. The best part? It only uses four simple ingredients!

This Oven-Baked 4-Ingredient Amish Beef and Dumpling Casserole is pure comfort food, turning hearty stew meat into tender, melt-in-your-mouth bites through a slow, gentle bake. The beef cooks in a rich blend of cream of mushroom soup and onion soup mix, creating a flavorful gravy that develops as it simmers. Topped at the end with buttermilk biscuit dough, the biscuits bake up golden on top while soaking in the savory juices below, giving them a soft, dumpling-like texture.
