When it comes to comfort food, nothing beats the classic combination of apples and warm, buttery biscuits. These Apple Pie Biscuits are a perfect blend of spiced apples and soft biscuits, topped with a sweet icing drizzle that makes them irresistible. Whether you’re looking for a cozy breakfast treat or a delightful dessert, these biscuits are sure to satisfy your cravings.

Ingredients:

Biscuits:

1 can of 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

Icing:

1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar

1 tablespoon milk

Directions:

Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a pan or skillet to ensure your biscuits don’t stick.

Mix Sugar Coating: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. This mixture will give your biscuits a delicious spiced coating.

Dip and Coat Biscuits: Dip each biscuit in the melted butter, ensuring all sides are covered. Then, roll the biscuits in the sugar mixture until they’re thoroughly coated. Arrange the biscuits in your prepared pan.

Prepare Apple Filling: Chop the apple pie filling into smaller pieces and mix in the vanilla extract. Spread the apple filling evenly over the biscuits.

Sprinkle and Drizzle: Sprinkle any remaining sugar mixture over the top of the biscuits and drizzle with the remaining melted butter for extra flavor.

Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

Prepare Icing: While the biscuits are baking, mix the confectioners’ sugar and milk until smooth to make the icing.

Drizzle and Serve: Once the biscuits are done, drizzle the icing over them while they are still warm. Serve and enjoy!

Serving Tips:

Warm and Fresh: Apple Pie Biscuits are best enjoyed warm, right out of the oven. The warmth enhances the flavor and makes the icing extra melty.

Pairings: These biscuits pair wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee, tea, or even a glass of milk. They can also be served with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.

Presentation: For a visually appealing presentation, drizzle the icing over the biscuits just before serving. You can also sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top for added flavor.

Storage Tips:

Room Temperature: Store any leftover Apple Pie Biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. This will help maintain their softness and flavor.

Refrigeration: If you plan to keep them for longer, you can refrigerate the biscuits in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave to restore their warmth and softness.

Freezing: For extended storage, you can freeze the biscuits. Place them in a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag and freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, thaw them at room temperature and warm them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.

FAQs:

Can I use homemade biscuit dough instead of canned biscuits?

Absolutely! If you prefer to make your own biscuit dough, you can use your favorite recipe for buttermilk biscuits. Just follow the same steps for dipping in butter and coating with the sugar mixture before baking.

Can I substitute the apple pie filling with fresh apples?

Yes, you can use fresh apples. Peel and dice 2-3 medium apples, and cook them with a little sugar, cinnamon, and a splash of lemon juice until they are tender. This will give you a fresh, homemade apple pie filling to use in the recipe.

How can I make the icing thicker or thinner?

To adjust the consistency of the icing, simply alter the amount of milk. For a thicker icing, reduce the milk to 1/2 tablespoon. For a thinner glaze, add a little more milk, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.

Can I prepare the Apple Pie Biscuits in advance?

Yes, you can prepare the biscuits up to the baking step in advance. Assemble the biscuits and apple filling in the pan, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, let the pan sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before baking as directed.

Conclusion:

These Apple Pie Biscuits are a simple yet scrumptious treat that combines the flavors of a classic apple pie with the soft, flaky texture of biscuits. With minimal prep time and ingredients, you can whip up a batch in no time and enjoy the cozy, comforting flavors of fall year-round.
