Apple Pie Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients

✅ 1 can buttermilk biscuits
✅ 1 can apple pie filling
✅ 1/2 cup butter, melted
✅ 1/2 cup brown sugar
✅ 1 tablespoon cinnamon
✅ 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
✅ 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2: Prepare the Biscuits

Separate the buttermilk biscuits and gently press each one to flatten slightly.
This helps the biscuits cook evenly and allows for more apple filling.

Step 3: Add the Apple Filling

Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of apple pie filling onto the center of each biscuit.
Avoid overfilling, as the apples may spill out while baking.

👉 Pro Tip: If you want a lighter sweetness, use less apple filling per biscuit.

Step 4: Bake Until Golden

Place the filled biscuits on the prepared baking sheet 1 inch apart.
Bake for 12–15 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and puffed.

Step 5: Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Glaze

While the biscuits bake, whisk together:
✅ Melted butter
✅ Brown sugar
✅ Cinnamon
✅ Nutmeg
✅ Vanilla extract

👉 Optional: Add a splash of milk if the glaze is too thick.

Step 6: Drizzle the Glaze

Let the biscuits cool for 5 minutes.
Generously drizzle the warm cinnamon-sugar glaze over each biscuit.
Allow the glaze to drip for extra flair!

Step 7: Serve & Enjoy!

Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.

Tips for Success

✔ Use High-Quality Apple Filling – Choose premium canned apple pie filling or make your own for fresher flavor.
✔ Don’t Overfill the Biscuits – Keep the apple portion moderate to prevent leaks.
✔ Make Ahead-Friendly – Bake ahead of time and reheat before serving.
✔ Experiment with Toppings – Try crushed pecans, caramel drizzle, or extra cinnamon for a flavor boost.
