INSTRUCTIONS
- Step 1:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a pan or skillet to prevent the biscuits from sticking during baking.
- Step 2:
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. This mixture will be used to coat the biscuits and add a sweet, spiced flavor.
- Step 3:
- Take each biscuit and dip it into the melted butter, making sure all sides are well coated. Then, roll each biscuit in the sugar and spice mixture, covering them completely. Arrange the coated biscuits in the prepared pan, leaving a little space between each one.
- Step 4:
- Chop the apple pie filling into smaller pieces to ensure they distribute evenly over the biscuits. Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavor. Spoon the apple pie filling over the biscuits, making sure each one gets a generous amount. Sprinkle any remaining sugar mixture over the top, then drizzle the remaining melted butter over everything.
- Step 5:
- Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The apples should be tender, and the sugar mixture should be caramelized.
- Step 6:
- While the biscuits are baking, prepare the icing. In a small bowl, mix together the confectioners’ sugar and milk until smooth. Once the biscuits are done, remove them from the oven and drizzle the icing over the top while they are still warm.
Serving and Storage Tips
-
- Serve the Apple Pie Biscuits warm, straight out of the oven, for the best flavor and texture.
- Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
- Leftover biscuits can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- To reheat, simply warm them in the oven at a low temperature or microwave for a few seconds until heated through.
Helpful Notes
-
- You can substitute the canned apple pie filling with homemade if you prefer a more personalized touch.
- Add a pinch of cloves or allspice for an extra layer of flavor.
-
- For a less sweet version, reduce the amount of sugar used in the coating.
Tips from well-known chefs
-
- Chef Paula Deen suggests using a mix of tart and sweet apples for the filling to balance the flavors.
- Chef Ree Drummond recommends using homemade buttermilk biscuits for a more authentic taste.
- Chef Jamie Oliver advises adding a splash of lemon juice to the apple filling to brighten the flavor.
