Ingredients
Scale
Biscuits
- 1 can buttermilk biscuits
Apple Pie Filling
- 1 can apple pie filling
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Coating & Topping
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
Icing
- 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a pan or skillet to prevent sticking.
- Mix Spice Sugar: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg thoroughly to create the spiced sugar coating.
- Coat Biscuits: Dip each biscuit into the melted butter ensuring every side is covered, then roll the biscuit in the brown sugar mixture. Place the coated biscuits evenly in the prepared pan.
- Prepare Apple Filling: Chop the apple pie filling into smaller chunks to distribute evenly and mix in the vanilla extract for enhanced flavor. Spoon this mixture over the arranged biscuits.
- Finish Coating: Sprinkle any remaining cinnamon sugar over the apples and biscuits and drizzle with the remaining melted butter for extra richness.
- Bake Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Make Icing and Serve: While warm, mix the confectioners’ sugar with milk until smooth and drizzle over the biscuits to finish. Serve warm for best taste.
Notes
- Using freshly melted butter for coating helps the sugar mixture stick well.
- Adjust cinnamon and nutmeg to taste for more or less spice.
- Serve warm shortly after adding icing for optimal flavor and texture.
- These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute with vegan butter and a milk alternative.
